[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think most people here are missing a vital aspect of consulting, and that is positioning oneself as a trusted advisor to the c-level. This requires certain intangibles to be sure. But an ability to understand a business, business processes, cost centers, organizational dynamics, change management, key performance indicators and scorecarding, training, employee unions, negotiation, facilitation, and communications are all skills of a good consultant. In my experience, the most valuable (or perhaps I should say most difficult to come by) of these is change management and facilitation. [/quote]

This is a word salad of business jargon that essentially has no meaning.[/quote]I give you points for picking up on “business”. But from your answer I can tell you have never worked with an MBA from a decent school.[/quote]

This thread is hilarious. As a former consultant I understood every word and it's amusing to me that to someone else it's like a mysterious language they can't make out. And that there are people who have no idea what management consultants do. It's not like there aren't many of us.[/quote]
