People
MicroStrategy’s consulting team blends the talents of industry veterans with top scholars from the most academically challenging and prestigious schools in the nation. Over 60% of our associate level consultants graduated from the top 50 U.S. universities, 54% graduated from the top 10.
Our mid-level consultants are industry veterans that have risen through our ranks or joined MicroStrategy from other top consulting practices and technology firms. The combination of rising professionals and tenured experts produces state-of-the-industry solutions.
We Recruit With Intelligence
We consider more than school pedigrees, class rankings, resumes and technical aptitude. We realize that effective consultants need to work well with people, not just with software. MicroStrategy's rigorous interview process ensures that the consultants we assign to your project have the interpersonal skills to work well with your staff, and to help you successfully adopt the new solutions we build together.
We Provide the Training
Before being sent into the field, all MicroStrategy consultants, veterans and recent graduates must complete a rigorous six-week training program. During this “boot camp,” consultants receive the equivalent of a masters-level course on e-business solutions. A series of projects, written exams, and presentations test retention and competence. All hires are conditional upon passing our intensive training program.
Following boot camp, consultants enter a field-readiness program to prepare them for real world consulting assignments. New consultants are teamed up with a tenured MicroStrategy mentor. All MicroStrategy consultants receive continuing training on new and evolving technologies. We invest in this training to ensure that every MicroStrategy consultant that walks through your door is fully prepared to add value to your project.
Our Consultants Leverage the Best Technology
MicroStrategy consultants have a unique advantage: an unmatched familiarity with the most complete, robust and scalable e-business platform in the industry. The tools in MicroStrategy’s software suite give our consultants the power and flexibility to solve your most complex problems with minimal amount of custom development.
Benefit From a Community of Practice
Our consulting practice’s culture, network and systems promote teamwork and sharing of information. When you hire a MicroStrategy consultant, you harness the power and history of the entire team. Each client experience adds to an ever-growing, formal archive – our knowledge base - an important tool used to solve complex problems and shorten production times.
