Advancy has just made a groundbreaking move by partnering with its eighth premier academic institution, Lycée Sainte-Geneviève, and its all-women rugby team, “Les Ginette.” This milestone officially positions Advancy as the very first strategy consulting firm to partner with and sponsor rugby across leading elite schools.

Why Strategy Consulting and Rugby Share the Same DNA

At first glance, a corporate boardroom and a rugby pitch might seem worlds apart. However, the core principles required to win in both arenas are identical. The high-stakes environment of strategy consulting demands a specific mindset, and rugby serves as the ultimate training ground for it.

Core Values Forged on the Field

• Solidarity: In rugby, a team is only as strong as its collective defense. Similarly, top-tier consulting relies on seamless, cross-functional collaboration to solve complex corporate challenges.

• Tactical Grit: Piercing through an opponent’s line requires deep analysis, quick decision-making, and unwavering persistence, the exact traits our consultants use to deliver breakthrough business strategies.

• Resilience: Both athletes and consultants must pivot swiftly under pressure, turning unexpected setbacks into competitive advantages.

Championing Women’s Leadership and Empowerment

By specifically championing the Ginette women’s rugby squad, Advancy is reinforcing its dedication to diversity, equity, and female leadership. These athletes represent the next generation of global business leaders.

The tenacity, discipline, and strategic vision required to dominate on the rugby field are the exact attributes that drive excellence in the consulting world. Supporting these women is not just a sponsorship; it is an investment in the future leaders of strategy.
