What does the Global Consulting Manager's cover on global Consulting Manager's Portfolio-Authorship Playbook?

Why this course?

Global consulting firms running AI-augmentation restructure reorganise Manager functions in the same operating-model cycle. Senior Managers above are protected by their margin contribution; team leads below are protected by their direct delivery. The Manager layer is the band the deck reviews most carefully. The managers who survive own a documented portfolio strategy with measurable revenue and margin outcomes, an account-relationship map BD.

The 12 modules

Module 1. Reading AI-augmentation restructure for Manager implications

AI-augmentation restructures at global consulting firms reorganise Manager functions in three phases: enterprise platform review, vertical practice review, and Manager-portfolio review. The diagnostic decodes which signals (delivery-margin compression, AI-augmentation revenue targets, billable-utilisation drift, capture-velocity benchmarks) indicate that the Manager layer is in the redraw set. Which Managers survive on engagement coverage and which survive on documented portfolio-authorship.

Module 2. Generic Manager vs portfolio-authorship leader

Two structurally different framings of the same Manager seat read very differently to the deck. Generic Manager shows up as delivery-cost overhead with a margin contribution. Portfolio-authorship reads as the leadership the practice structurally depends on through restructure: documented portfolio strategy, account-relationship map BD cites, and quarterly state artefact the practice principal forwards. The three artefacts that mark the shift.

Module 3. Your documented portfolio strategy

Construct the portfolio strategy as a practice principal-grade two-page document anchored to measurable revenue and margin outcomes: revenue by account, margin by engagement type, transformation programmes delivered, expansion pipeline, and AI-augmentation contribution. Three structural templates (enterprise-transformation-anchored, vertical-modernisation-anchored, advisory-anchored) and the formula for choosing the template that fits your portfolio.

Module 4. Account-relationship map

Map your top 15 accounts with format: account name, sponsorship-level (CIO, CTO, CFO, business-line VP), last meaningful contact, current revenue contribution, expansion pipeline, and capture-team composition. The map BD leadership cites by Manager name in expansion reviews and that the practice principal cites in restructure defence. How to surface relationships from delivery into BD visibility.

Module 5. Quarterly portfolio-state artefact for the practice principal

The quarterly artefact is a two-page state document covering portfolio momentum, account-relationship status, transformation pipeline, AI-augmentation outcomes, and emerging risks. Cadence is end-of-quarter delivery to practice principal with copies to BD, capture, and adjacent practice Managers. Three worked examples from real global consulting Manager portfolios at different AI-augmentation stages.

Module 6. Working with BD, capture, and account leadership

Manager work overlaps BD (account expansion), capture (large-deal pursuit), and account leadership (named-account executives). The collaboration pattern that strengthens defensibility positioning: portfolio IP shared with BD, joint pursuits with capture credited, account-leadership co-sponsored quarterly reviews. Examples of joint-team narratives that elevated a Manager to Senior Manager and how to document the partnership for the practice principal.

Module 7. Margin-defence story

Margin is what finance reads first in cost-per-revenue restructure reviews. Format the margin story as a four-quarter trend with engagement-type breakdown, AI-augmentation contribution, talent-mix optimisation (onshore vs offshore vs near-shore), and forward pipeline. Three storytelling templates for different margin profiles and the talking points each template gives the practice principal in finance reviews.

Module 8. Cross-portfolio leverage

Reusable Manager practices that scale across portfolios: account-onboarding protocols, quarterly business-review cadences, transformation-roadmap templates, AI-augmentation playbooks for delivery acceleration. The leverage pattern that signals Manager-grade leadership rather than account coverage. How to convert delivered engagement work into published practice the practice principal cites in restructure defence.

Module 9. AI augmentation as accelerator

Use AI augmentation to strengthen portfolio rather than absorb it. The narrative documents how AI augmentation (delivery acceleration, automated analysis, AI-assisted research, AI-driven client outputs) increased margin, accelerated delivery, and protected client outcomes. Three patterns (transformation-engagement accelerator, advisory accelerator, modernisation accelerator) and how to document each as portfolio-strengthening leadership the principal cites.

Module 10. Scope statement: Manager vs Senior Manager / Principal

Two overlapping seats with different scopes. Manager scope covers portfolio delivery, BD partnership, IP authorship at portfolio level. Senior Manager scope adds portfolio-line ownership, succession sponsorship, cross-portfolio leverage. Principal scope adds practice-area P&L, partner-track participation, and practice-cabinet responsibilities. The scope statement that puts you in the Senior Manager and Principal track defensibly.

Module 11. Promotion mechanics inside global consulting delivery

Internal path from Manager to Senior Manager to Principal. The promotion artefact (portfolio strategy, account-relationship record, margin contribution, AI-augmentation outcomes) and the cycle calendar (Q1 review, Q2 nomination, Q3 cabinet review, Q4 announcement). What gets a Manager shortlisted, what blocks a Manager who is otherwise qualified, and how to time your move with the practice principal's succession plan.

Module 12. Your 90-day move to portfolio-authorship framing

Day-by-day plan with daily artefacts. Days 1-7: portfolio strategy scaffold drafted from your account inventory. Days 8-21: account-relationship map v1 completed with BD-confirmed sponsorship levels. Days 22-45: quarterly artefact v1 delivered to practice principal. Days 46-60: portfolio-line ownership conversation. Days 61-90: Senior Manager conversation scheduled with practice-cabinet sponsor identified in module 11.

Before and after

Before

You manage global consulting engagements. The restructure is being discussed.

After

Your portfolio strategy is what the practice principal opens first. The relationship map is what BD cites. The quarterly artefact lands with the principal. The Senior Manager conversation is scheduled.

What happens if you do not address this

AI-augmentation restructures redistribute Manager portfolios within one or two cycles.

Who it is for

For Managers, Senior Managers, and team leads at global consulting firms in AI-augmentation restructure.

Who this is NOT for. Junior consultants. Managers at non-consulting firms. Managers at firms not in restructure.

How it arrives

Text-based course via LMS, plus downloadable templates and the hand-built implementation playbook.

Time investment. Roughly 12 hours of reading and 15 to 20 hours producing your real artefacts.

Why $199 is the right number

Internal global consulting Manager training is general. External delivery communities cover technique. A senior Principal mentor would cover maybe four of these 12 modules informally. $199 buys the focused playbook plus the implementation document for your real engagement portfolio.

Will the practice principal actually forward my quarterly artefact?

Module 5 is built around the format principals forward.

What if my portfolio is split across practices?

Module 3 covers that case.

Why pay for this instead of reading free leadership content?

Is Senior Manager actually open?

Module 11 covers that diagnostic.

What is in the implementation playbook for me specifically?
