Publisher's Synopsis
You or your company can be screwed if you are hiring consultants without a plan to manage their bid for the sale, statement of work, and overall engagement. Management consulting is supposed to be the practice of helping organizations improve their performance, processes, and efficiencies or to manage risk, mitigate financial threats, and leverage the latest and greatest in technology and human minds. Reality is another story. Learn from a seasoned risk and compliance, fraud examiner, and process improvement consultant who has worked for over twelve years in three of the Big Four consultancies on how you and your company can mitigate corporate risk when bringing in paid advisors. This short anecdotally-based instructional should be required reading for any new consultant, company that is considering consulting options or who has consultants in place, project mangers, PPDs, and consulting firm owners. There are risks on both sides that until now no-one is talking about. Truths come out in non-disparaging ways so both parties can better manage their projects so no one gets screwed.
