tConsult

tConsult aims to host business strategy classes, open to all Tembusu College students. The classes teach the fundamentals of business strategy to students who are interested in business strategy. Topics covered include common management consulting frameworks and design thinking. Prior to each lesson, participants will be sent readings. These readings will be discussed in class, and it is meant to enhance the learning experience by posing questions to the students. This is a versatile way to approach the classes, as students who are much more interested in the lessons can invest more energy into learning. This allows us to target different student personas. Bryan will be the instructor for the classes, while other tConsult members will manage the operations and marketing side of the IG. We want to create a community who is more aware of the theory behind business strategy and enable students to better appreciate the applications of the topics discussed.

Its trunk is dark brown, with deeply fissured bark, looking somewhat like a bittergourd. It grows in an irregular shape from 10 to 25m high. Its leaves are light green and oval in shape. Its yellowish flowers have a distinct fragrance and the fruits of the tree are bitter tasting red berries, which are eaten by birds and fruit bats.
