Question 1 of 40

What do you think makes a good management consultant?

This question can be tricky because the characteristics and traits you mention are ones you should also possess. Instead of listing what constitutes a good management consultant, explain how a good management consultant attains those skills and performs with reliable consistency. Share what makes you great at your job, what methods you employ to deliver with a high success rate, and where you'd like to grow.
