Dal risvolto di copertina interno

Are you an experienced, successful, and sophisticated consultant who is unwittingly falling victim to the success trap? You are in the success trap, if you simply keep doing more of what made your practice thrive in the first place. "This," says top business consultant, speaker, and author Alan Weiss, "is professional suicide."In The Ultimate Consultant, Alan Weiss shows accomplished business consultants (and those who aspire to be!) how to avoid the common pitfalls of success and raise their performance level for even greater results. As Weiss explains, in order to stay on top of their game, consultants must constantly grow, seek out and acquire new clients, and stretch their abilities and competencies so they will be of value to higher level buyers in a wider range of organizations. The more prospects you attract, the more you are able to determine with whom you'll work, where you'll work, when you'll work, and for what fee you'll work. Within these pages, the author reveals how you can control these dynamics that are crucial for determining success.The Ultimate Consultant-the first book in a series written for experienced practitioners--is filled with helpful interviews and vignettes from an array of successful consultants from around the world, and offers the templates, examples, information and tools you need to transform your business.
