This is a guide to navigating Flevy to find the documents and other resources you need related to Business Operations. “Operations” is a broad, vague term. It can convey a lot of different meanings to different people. If you don’t find what you are looking for in this article, please email us at [email protected].
First, a very brief introduction to Flevy. We are a marketplace for premium business documents. Our documents are of the same caliber as those produced by top tier consulting firms, like McKinsey, Bain, Accenture, BCG, and Deloitte. In fact, we have ex-consultants from all these firms selling on Flevy. Furthermore, most of our documents were developed by seasoned executives and consultants with 20+ years of experience.
We have thousands of documents, so it may appear cumbersome to find exactly the documents you need! To address this issue, we have organized the documents into curated sets of “business toolkits.” Each toolkit consists of a set of training guides (typically in PowerPoint form) that explain how to perform a specific business initiative (e.g. Strategic Sourcing, Process Improvement, Cost Management). In most cases, these are the same frameworks used by consultancies when they deploy their project teams to Fortune 500 clients.
