Description
Consulting is a complex industry that promises transformation and improvement to organisations. However, the reality is often different, and it's unclear whether consultants can truly predict and control the changes they aim to achieve. This book reframes the role of consultants, seeing them as active participants in organisational life rather than detached observers. The authors bring together their expertise to provide practical guidance on leading in everyday organisational situations using sound judgement. The book includes real-world examples and a concluding chapter that explores the implications for both theory and practice. With its mix of theoretical grounding and practical insights, this is an ideal resource for executives, students, and those seeking to develop leadership skills. It's a valuable resource for anyone looking to understand the complexities of consultancy practice and how to apply it in real-world situations.
