From Advising to Doing

Chapter 12 in Management Consultancy in the 21st Century, 1999, pp 119-127 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Perhaps the most consistent criticism levelled against consultants is that they are ail talk and no action. The archetypal hit-and-run approach to consulting involved writing a lengthy report on the client’s desk, containing unrealistic suggestions couched in management jargon — and running before anyone actually tried to do anything.
