 a consultant. You could benefit from consulting support if you meet any of these criteria. You, or your team, are: - in crisis mode, or concerned about your company's current performance; - unable to see your company's long-term success and viability; - overwhelmed, frustrated, or stressed out; - failing to deliver the results you are held 
accountable to hit; - plagued by problems and big challenges you are unable to solve; or - unsure how to move to your company to the next level or achieve your goals. 
The thing is, not all consultants are created equal. This tell-all book makes the process of picking 
the right consultant easy for you-so you can experience confidence and peace of mind that you have selected the perfect consultant to guide you to achieve great results, and for your company to thrive.
