High Value Consulting: Managing and Maximising External and Internal Consultants for Massive Added Value by Tom Lambert
This volume takes the manager through the Chinese puzzle of 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. The book provides practical advice which should enable readers to: choose and use external advice for maximum returns in the shortest possible time; minimize both the cost and the risk of consultancy; use consultants as fast-track developers for a company's best talents; and develop an internal consultancy capability for peak performance and profit. Tom Lambert is the author of "The Power of Influence", "Key Management Solutions", "Making Change Pay" and "High Income Consulting".
