LSE Crack the Brief Workshop
Are you ready to put your commercial thinking and business acumen to the test? AlphaSights invites LSE students to an exclusive 'Crack the Brief' Workshop. As an Associate at AlphaSights, no two client briefs are ever the same. One day you might be researching wind farms in Korea; the next, exploring dairy-free ice cream brands in the U.S. A core skill you’ll build here is learning how to break down any brief - no matter the subject. In this workshop, we’ll give you a behind-the-scenes look at the process that makes this possible
This hands-on session will challenge you to think like an Associate, working through a client brief in teams to break down the commercial value chain and identify key experts to solve strategic business challenges. You will present your findings to one of our senior leaders, receiving personalised feedback and guidance.
