"A very thorough introduction to the world of management consulting."
- Tom Northup
Association of Professional Consultants

"After nearly 25 years in corporate sales and various marketing positions, I am now working on my own as an independent owner of a worldwide franchise. Since I came to business from journalism, and not through a business or MBA program, the idea of what a "consultant" actually is or does was very confusing. Your book was different from the rest in that you took the extra step and gave specific examples of assignments, or proposal language, etc. And it was that level of detail that made me go "of course, I've always done that," or "so that's what that means." Now that I'm equipped to better define my role, I'll be able to communicate that added value to my clients."
- Liz Micik
