This includes analyses of disruptive technologies, socio-cultural trends, economic trends, as well as clients, potential customers, competition, and suppliers. They will continue to do an internal analysis of the different divisions and, where possible,compare that to comparable companies or direct competitors

Be available for a 1-hour meeting (virtually or in person) with the student-consultants in order to explain your company, industry, and answer questions

Provide necessary information regarding the organization, including 2-3 years of financials, and perhaps customer service policies, supplier information, etc depending on what your needs are (NDAs will be signed)

Be responsive to periodic emails to answer any questions or concerns that the student(s) may have as they progress
