This is not just another book telling consultants how to advise their clients on solving specific problems—increasing sales, finding the best IT system, reducing turnover, and so on. Consulting Mastery teaches consultants how to master the real challenge of working with organizations: effecting actual change. It examines how to help clients help themselves to achieve higher levels of performance.

Drawing on interviews with fourteen master consultants and ten executives in client organizations, Merron explores how consultants can profoundly impact the way organizations operate.

Whether you are a seasoned consultant or just starting out, Consulting Mastery will inspire you to adopt goals , strategies, and the mindset that will help you make a real difference in your work and in your client organizations.
