Common problems

Every consultancy encounters the same challenges, how to staff people, how to sell, how to get one up on the competition and so on. It doesn't really matter if you're Big Blue or one of the continental firms. (Okay... Size does matter somewhat, but generally there isn't really something that separates one firm from the other.)

So really jumping ship and moving on is just that. Not much else.

There is however one fundamental weakness in consulting firms that would be great if someone actually managed to beat it. Every consulting firm is great in starting things, in having a great idea and acting on it. Unfortunately no firm is good at seeing things through, or deal with (unforeseen) circumstances on any consistent basis.

So if you're a firm who can actually do that and prove it to me, give me a call.
