Specialisation

Chapter 8 in Management Consultancy in the 21st Century, 1999, pp 82-90 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Some things don’t change much: ‘In the end, everyone should meet on (and fight over) the same patch — one that combines the merits of generalist and specialist.’ (The Economist, 13 February 1988) ‘The consultant of the future will be a specialist not a generalist, hungrier than ever before, better able to operate at boardroom level, more able to articulate the skills he has to other business units and better able to price jobs sensibly.’ (Bob Simm, then head of KPMG Consulting practice, in 19921)
