Title: Methodology vs. Problem Solving Tools
Review: Is this a 5 star book or a 2.5 star book?Well, it depends which of these 2 questions are you trying to answer:1) Are you trying to find out the consulting methodology that the Firm uses in order to solve problems and have their clients come back for more?2) Are you trying to find out what analytically consulting tools does the Firm uses?If you have selected number 1, then you will love (5 star) this book, because it is a window into the McKinsey world and it primarily focuses on the consulting methodology used by the Firm, but at a high level. (It also touches upon a few problem solving tools like the Issue Tree, Quick and Dirty Test, Hypothesis and Decision/Logic tree, but at a superficial level.)If you have selected number 2, then you will be disappointed, since the authors show only a few tools and, even then, they only go into it at a high level; therefore, you might be inclined to rate this book poorly.
