Title: MCD 2009. 4th International Conference on Management Consulting: The Changing Paradigm of Consulting. Adjusting to the Fast-Paced World
Description: The dynamic global business world is providing a wake-up call and teaching a lesson these days to consultants, consulting firms and academics – to become more relevant and real-time. • Gone are studies based on fees billed on time consumed. • Clients are pressing for more involvement in projects. • The role of consultants is turning into facilitators and doers, not analysts. • Consulting firms are diversifying into outsourcing and venture capital. • The training of consultants no longer lies in MBAs being hired with only functional discipline training. • Pressures for professional accreditation and higher levels of integrity are increasing. Lots of fall-out implications for the role of consultants, the process of consulting, the business model of firms, the teaching of consulting and research on consulting.
