Product Information
Following his bestselling High Income Consulting, the 'consultant's consultant' now provides the essential guide from the inside to seeking business advice from the outside. In an increasingly volatile and chaotic business world the competitive edge of the corporation is not resource, but resourcefulness. Focused resourcefulness, during an acclerated business cycle, demands frequent injections of skills and knowledge which are being bought-in from external consultants. But external consultants are always expensive and often fail to deliver. Is there a better, more economic way to ensure win high added value and competitiveness? This book shows that there is. (TL) High Value Consulting explains how consulting works in the real world, cuts through the jargon and puts the power to get things done back into the hands of the manager where it belongs. Business and government, both increasingly dependent on external advisors, need a clear and workmanlike game plan for the selection and control of consultants and other outsiders. The most far-sighted are demanding to know how to make better use of their own resources to keep costs low and expectations and results uniformly high. This is essential reading for any manager who needs to hire or work with external advisors - it will be an important text for all who want to survive and prosper in the Knowledge Age.Product Identifiers
