Business Consulting
Synopsis
There's scarcely a major company that does not use consultants and the public sector is increasingly turning to consultants for help in delivering public services. Three-quarters of consulting work in done for clients where the consulting firm has an established relationship. Yet the business consulting industry has changed beyond recognition in the past ten years. The spread of outsourcing and off shoring, the rise of the professional procurement department, wider use of contingency fees and a squeeze on margins have all combined to reshape the environment in which consultants operate dramatically. This book explores the new shape of consulting. It examines why organizations use consultants, how consulting firms compete and what consultants do. Based on hundreds of interviews with the managers who hire consultants and the people who run consulting firms, it offers an authoritative analysis of this most shadowy of professions. It also provides invaluable practical advice on what organizations need to do to get the best out of the consultants they use and what consulting firms need to do to achieve the best results for those they work for.
