First Things...Consultants

9:49 PM

Our Philosophy on Management Consultants (MC) is that they, in large measure, lean toward over complicating their delivery of changes, processes and strategies. There exists now a fair number (although a minority) of MC's that are focused on creating the shortest path to increasing results (read that as "profitable results for the Client").


Should you as an Executive or Manager have an occasion or mandate to search and hire an MC for targeted counseling, strategy, process or change management, consideration should be given first to those inside your organization who may possess insight in that targeted area. The reasons we suggest this are self-evident. Another avenue to investigate are the networks and relationships of Management level people inside your company who may connect you with precisely the correct outside resource needed for that task. If you find this may be the case, getting such a party familiar with the issues to be untangled or improved will be far quicker given the relationship existing.

It is also highly effective to research proven MC's who are published and already have massive market validation ( think: "Peter Drucker must have solved this before") and do some reading on the territory already trampled, shorten your organizations learning curve and expense while expanding your mind concurrently.
