Book description
Despite the size of the consulting industry and its attractiveness to
business school graduates, there is a dearth of agreement about what
constitutes "professionalism" in consulting.
The Practice of Professional Consulting
provides the most comprehensive introduction to the field of
consulting, including a complete system of guidelines, and all the
tools, templates, techniques, case studies, competencies, and
assessments to become a professional consultant. Broad enough to be
useful to anyone starting any kind of consulting business, yet specific
in explaining typical client situations, this guide offers new and
aspiring consultants with a perspective of the rules, roles, values,
methods, and techniques used across firms in the consulting industry.
