What Is Mercer Documents?

Mercer is a global management consulting firm that provides a range of consulting services in the areas of Talent, Health, Retirement, and Investments. Mercer works with organizations in the public, private, and non-profit sectors to help them attract, develop, and retain talent; improve employee health and well-being; and design and implement effective retirement and investment plans.

Large consulting and advisory firms, like Mercer, have internal knowledge management repositories that allow their consultants to easily access and share documents (e.g. consulting frameworks, PowerPoint templates, project deliverables, whitepapers, case studies, business cases, financial models, benchmark data, etc.) and expertise within the organization.

These document repositories promote collaboration, facilitate the sharing of best practices, and help ensure that the firm's knowledge and expertise are leveraged effectively across different client engagements and teams. They are a key differentiator that allow firms like Mercer to outcompete other organizations.

Flevy is essentially a public version of these consulting knowledge management libraries. The Mercer documents listed above on this page are framework presentations of the same caliber as those developed and used by Mercer consultants. These frameworks are widely applicable across different projects, addressing general topics like problem solving, structured communication, strategic thinking, project management, etc. For frameworks and resources catered to a specific management topic, such as HR Strategy, Organizational Design, Employee Training, etc., scroll down to the "Other Management Topics" section.

The majority of the materials found on Flevy are developed by seasoned executives and consultants with 20+ years of experience with backgrounds that include McKinsey, BCG, Bain, Deloitte, Accenture, A.T. Kearney, LEK, Roland Berger, Capgemini, IBM Global Services, EY, PwC, Mercer, and Oliver Wyman.
