The program follows the same EUREKA process, but each separate team of 5 is comprised of 5 MBA or PhD students from a particular school. Client companies can opt to have each of the 5 teams from different schools, perhaps even drawn from different geographic regions to increase the diversity of perspectives. As with the in company EUREKA program, the teams are expertly facilitated and guided by our consultants. To increase the sense of competition between the student teams, we recommend that in addition to the usual fees that client companies also offer suitable prize money for the winning team.

- An additional PLUS is the opportunity to observe and identify high-potential talent to potentially recruit.
Our unique facilitative approach delivers 200% value for our clients:
