C-Suite Spotlight has named Curtis Wilgosh, Olin MBA 2006, one of the Top 100 consultants of 2022.

Wilgosh is a management consultant based in Chicago. He’s a director with PwC, a leading professional services firm in 156 countries with more than 295,000 employees.

“These professionals flourish in the face of disruption and are quick with their strategic problem solving expertise,” the announcement said.

“As economic uncertainty surges, this year’s awardees are heavily relied upon to provide advice and direction to the companies and industries they serve. They are intuitive, skilled communicators with the ability to listen and evaluate the myriad of considerations when making big complex decisions.”

Wilgosh is a leader within PwC’s cloud & digital practice who guides Fortune 500 clients through complex business transformations. He digitizes their financials, supply chain, planning and budgeting, customer relationship management and human capital functions. 

He serves on the Olin Advisory Board, the Dartmouth Hockey Alumni Advisory Board and the Oracle Cloud Planning & Manufacturing Field Advisory Board.

“My Olin MBA helped shape how I think about problems and opportunities,” Wilgosh told the Olin Blog.

“I continue to lean on Olin’s values-based, data-driven learnings, which cultivated a global-mindedness, coupled with experiential learning, analytical rigor and an entrepreneurial spirit.”

Olin prepared him to lead large, diverse teams, he said. “It’s more than just a myopic focus on improving the bottom line. Its about driving sustainable outcomes that adhere to our values.”

In addition to his MBA, Wilgosh graduated from Dartmouth College with an undergraduate degree in environmental studies.
