From the publisher

A must have for all practising and aspiring consultants and strategists, this book covers a wide range of consultancy tools and techniques that are well displayed, well described and well referenced. The tools and techniques are helpfully divided in to twenty recognisable skills sectors within management consultancy fields and specialisms.

The depiction of the content with diagrams aids the process of quick reference and ease of understanding. The tools and techniques can be utilised across the whole range of organisational sectors, both private and public. The purpose is not to short cut formal learning, but to provide easy access to a 'toolbox' of tried and tested management approaches through a collection of models, tools and occasional brief notes which consultants, managers and scholars can use in a practical way.

The London School of Marketing is happy to include this book in its essential reading list as a better source for further reading around the Chartered Institute of Marketing Professional Diploma, the Chartered Institute of Marketing Professional Postgraduate Diploma and the Diploma in Management Consultancy."

Anton Dominique, Strategy & Marketing Director, London School of Marketing

"This is a must have for all aspirant consultants and business strategists as it cuts to what the tools are for and how you use them in a business context."

"This book has been included by the Institute of Business Consulting (IBC) to the recommended reading list for its two professional qualifications: the Certificate in Management Consulting Essentials and the Diploma in Management Consultancy."
