Insightful, user friendly, relevant, great layout.
The Business of Consulting effectively addresses the host of questions that need to be asked and answered before taking the huge step of leaving your current, stable, dependable position and going out on your own. The book is extremely well written and organized. It reads easily, in large part because of the first person usage. It's a very enjoyable and useful book.

An Excellent Read!
One of the difficulties of independent consulting is the loss of colleagues to "bounce ideas with." Elaine's book helps to fill that gap! It's extremely easy to read, full of information, very practical, and well-organized! Elaine talks about lifestyle changes as well as business considerations-the complete guide for a new or an experienced consultant!

Very light on content
This disappointing book skirts the issue of consulting and instead uses generic advice about building any business. It consists of laundry lists, not usable advice. Bottom line: This will not help anyone build a consulting business. Similar Products
