DPeter...

This is an excellent guide for the novice or expereinced consultant. It is also very useful to anyone functioning in an internal consulting capacity. The book is easy to read and is laid out in a very orderly manner.

Oldie but Goodie

Considering that this book is almost 20 years out of date (all the report examples were done on typewriters!) it is still a meaty assessment of what management consulting is about from some senior people who have a lot of experience under their belts. I appreciated the blend of conceptual discussions, detail (without being overwhelming), savvy insights on office politics and concrete examples that brought issues to life. If nothing else, it gives a good picture of where consultants are coming from for those who hire them. Unlike other reviewer, I was not put off by "big league" name dropping. Many Fortune 500 firms will would only consider hiring these type of consultants, and if you work in such a place, it is a fact of life.
