Consultants can help but are not the answer!
- There are no quick fixes.
- Beware of the “canned solution.” I never heard a consultant say, “I don’t know.”
- Consultants have more time to think – but thinking is the key (step back, step forward).
- In the end, you have to do it yourself.

Consultants have their place, but they often get bum rap because they’re brought in to help make cuts and reorganize.
Consultants often get the “bum rap” because they are also often misused. Consultants can give us an emotionally-detached point of view which is helpful when we are wanting to make changes that make us uncomfortable.
