Inflection Points: Pivoting to Consulting
Guest host Daniel Yellin talks with manager Alice Saltão da Silva and senior manager Lee Foster, both based in our Atlanta office, about transitioning into consulting. Alice went from professional dancing to earning a dual DPT/PhD and joining Bain through our ADvantage program, while Lee shifted from teaching and policy work with Teach for America to consulting after earning her MPP. They highlight how diverse backgrounds enrich Bain's teams and align with the firm's principle of "Diverse Teams, One Bain," demonstrating that varied experiences can enhance consulting success.
