Everyone is a Consultant
A consultant doesn’t have to be a third-party practitioner working tirelessly for an organization through contract work. Peter Block notes that consultants are also the people working the front-lines inside organizations that managers should be utilizing in major decision-making events. Consultants are the experts and are one of managers largest assets when making high-profile decisions.
Flawless Consulting is a Must Read
I highly recommend reading this book regardless of who you are and what you do. Whether you are a consultant, manager or front-line employee, if you are looking to learn how to build authentic relationships with people in order to really make a lasting impact, this book is a must read.
Thanks for the book Tina Pierce.
