Consulting Uncensored
The good, the bad and the ugly of the world of consulting.
Consulting Uncensored is where we have straight talk on key topics impacting the consulting industry. Hosted by industry veteran Neal McNamara, who is never short on unfiltered opinions on most things but in particular matters of strategy, leadership, talent and culture.
With decades of experience building and leading high-performing consulting teams, Neal sits down with other industry participants, investors, executives and consumers of consulting services to talk openly about realities of the industry - especially realities that many don't openly discuss or analyze.
Whether you’re a veteran in the industry, early in your career or someone considering a career in consulting, Consulting Uncensored offers an unfiltered look at the industry, what it takes to succeed and ways to grow and build great practices and/or businesses with some fun and entertaining dialogue along the way.
No consulting speak. Real talk. No filters.

New Challenges to the Big 4 and the Questionable Responses
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
The consulting industry is entering a more volatile phase as the Big Four (Deloitte, PwC, EY, and KPMG) face a new kind of competition: former partners building well-funded firms designed to compete directly with them. As industry giants respond with aggressive legal action, they are forced to balance protecting their market share with broader risks around culture, talent, and long-term positioning.
In this episode, Neal explores whether these hardball tactics could backfire, impacting how firms are perceived internally and by the private equity players they rely on as major clients. Listen in to hear about the shift in power that’s reshaping the industry from the inside.
