The Management Consultant

by Confab Comm

In a follow up to the August 31 blog post covering negative feelings towards management consultants at Boeing, here, we came across this “The Atlantic” article titled About My Job: The Management Consultant. The author addresses the major complaint against management consultants by delving down to the heart of the matter.

The complaint against management consultants is that they do nothing that a company can not do themselves already. The author argues that companies too often are busy with the day to day and ignore the big picture or taking of risks. It is up to the management consultant, as an outsider, to step in and make the big bold suggestions. For this they make the big bucks.
