Management consultants are constantly challenged to find solutions to elusive problems. This requires bringing a balance of knowledge, experience and skill to each opportunity, and each opportunity results in raising our knowledge, experience and skill to new levels. We are always learning, expanding, and faced with interesting assignments. The routine of management consulting is, there is no routine. If you have what it takes, you will love management consulting.
Learn this October 23-25 what it takes
to be a management consultant
Do you have the confidence, the commitment, the yearning to be your own boss? A woman came to visit me about going into a management consulting career. She seemed to have the knowledge, experience and skill this career shift required. We discussed a process she could follow to move into consulting without a sustained income gap. As she thanked me and got up to leave she commented, “Well if it doesn’t work out I can always go back to the old job.” I told her to come back in and sit down. We needed to talk about her entrepreneurial commitment.
If you genuinely like people and care about them, management consulting gives you the field to improve their welfare while earning a comfortable income for yourself. If you are only in this for the income, then your clients will see through this and you will lose the greatest leverage you can have in consulting: repeat business and referrals.
