Summary
"Management Consultancy has been written in response to the pressing need amongst management consultants for reliable expert guidance. This reference book covers all aspects of their role, provides guidelines on best practice and contains expert contributions, helpful case studies and a complete overview of the industry." "This fully updated second edition explores the principles behind the application of specialized management techniques to the consultancy process. It also seeks to promote an understanding of the dynamics of the client-consultant relationship. Comprehensive in its coverage and full of practical advice, techniques and useful information, it is structured in six key parts: management consultancy today and tomorrow; the consulting process; managing the business of management consultancy; change management; concepts and tools; and different fields of consulting activity." "Certified management consultants and those preparing for management consultancy qualifications across the world will find the text essential reading for their continuing professional development and certification. It will be particularly useful for consultants who are sole practitioners or who are with small firms that do not have access to the proprietary training programmes run by the brand name management consultancy houses. It will be of equal interest and value to those working within the larger consultancies who are taking charge of their own careers and managing their own learning within a framework of career opportunity and professional development resources provided by their employers."--BOOK JACKET.
