Advises organizations on strategy, operations, and organizational development.
Consulting is pattern-matching on enterprise data and common playbooks. Case studies, benchmarks, best practices—all now queryable via large language models at 1/50th the cost of McKinsey. The 'strategic insight' was always pattern recognition; now it's automated. Boutique strategy work (M&A, transformation) survives in small teams with deep domain expertise, but the high-volume 'change management' and 'org design' work is being compressed into software. The retraining fantasy is the worst here: yes, consultants are smart—but the smartest moved into AI strategy consulting, not out of the field entirely.
