Flawless Consulting Fieldbook and Companion:  A Guide to Understanding Your Expertise

by Peter Block and 30 Flawless Consultants

Editorial Reviews
From the Inside Flap
A friend indeed!  In this time of free agency, outsourcing, and cross-functional work teams, consulting has become a part of everyone's job. Plus, we live in an era in which we are forced to hire professionals to provide the help we used to seek from friends. Some of this need for instant expertise is for reassurance; some is just that we do not have time to learn it ourselves. So, despite all the ambivalence surrounding consulting, it has grown into big business and generally infiltrated our lives.  The intent of this book is:

bulletTo support the integrity of your expertise
bulletTo change your mind about how you interpret your own consulting experience
bulletTo broaden your way of thinking
bulletTo bring a manageable dose of therapy and art, philosophy and literature into you thoughts about consulting, and
bulletTo so it in a comforting and simple way

Enjoy this book, let it accompany you into the field, and use it as encouragement for writing your own story, which may the point of it all.
