Introduction The purpose of this paper is to provide a detailed analysis of the Tim Keller at Katzenbach Partners LLC case study. Tim Keller is a new employee at Katzenbach Partners, which is a management consultancy firm. In this regard, the first part of the analysis will focus on Tim Keller and Katzenbach where he is working as a consultant. The second part of the analysis will focus on the performance of Keller and the challenges he faced in his new job. Finally, recommendations will be made based on the outcome of the analysis of the case study. Analysis of the Case Study Tim Keller’s Career Objective Wemer, Schuler and Jackson (2012, p. 117) define career objective as a personalized declaration that defines the goals that a person intends to achieve by pursuing a particular profession. In this regard, having a clear career objective is essential in identifying the right job or profession. However, Keller did not have a clear career objective due to his multiple professional interests. In particular, he aspired to develop a career in different areas, which included politics, international development, banking, and management. Despite not having a clear career objective, Keller was able to identify the attributes of his ideal job. These included flexibility, participation in decision-making initiatives, interpersonal interactions, and limited office time. Thus, Keller’s frequent change of careers in different organizations can be explained in part by his desire to achieve the aforementioned attributes, as well as, his lack of a clear career objective. Moreover, Keller’s frustrations at Katzenbach can be attributed to the fact that his new job did not provide him with adequate flexibility and the opportunity to participate in decision-making initiatives, which mattered a lot to him. For instance, the job required much of his time and he was denied an opportunity to attend a meeting in which important decisions about his models would be made. Keller’s Educational Background Keller’s diverse professional aspirations were well matched to his educational background. Studying art history and political economy provided him with the knowledge he required to pursue a successful political career. Additionally, studying finance and business development provided Keller with the knowledge he needed to pursue a career in various areas including business management, consultancy, and international development. Ultimately, Keller required adequate experience in order to find the right job. Work Experience Keller’s aspiration to pursue different professions was supported by his education background and diverse work experience. He was likely to succeed in politics due to his work experience in the Senate, both in the United States and in New Mexico. Keller’s achievements at Katzenbach can be attributed to his prior work experience as a process consultant and an analyst in the investment banking industry. In this regard, he is likely to have combined his analytical skills with his experience in consultancy to create value at Katzenbach. Furthermore, Keller’s experience as a manager at Digital Divide Data improved his management, teamwork, and leadership skills. Ac
