JarusHub On-Line Description
The Strategist Comes to Lagos
JarusHub’s Remarks
It is not uncommon to see top management consultants move from McKinsey to BCG, two of the top 3 management consulting firms in the world, as Gravito did. Having such a highly experienced and thoroughbred management guru as its head in Nigeria is no doubt a wise move by BCG. BCG opened office in Nigeria in April 2016 and targets to have up to 60 employees by 2020. It seeks to target infrastructure contracts in Nigeria.
BCG’s arch-rival in global consulting space, McKinsey, has been in Nigeria longer and appears to be doing well. Will Gravito drive BCG to give McKinsey a run for its money in Nigerian market?
