Management consulting<\/b>\u00a0is the practice of helping\u00a0organizations<\/a>\u00a0to improve their\u00a0performance<\/a>, operating primarily through the analysis of existing organizational problems and the development of plans for improvement. Organizations may draw upon the services of management\u00a0consultants<\/a>\u00a0for a number of reasons, including gaining external (and presumably objective) advice and access to the consultants’ specialized expertise.<\/p>\n

As a result of their exposure to, and relationships with numerous organizations, consulting firms are typically aware of industry “best practices<\/a>.” However, the specific nature of situations under consideration may limit the ability to transfer such practices from one organization to another.<\/p>\n

Consultancies may also provide organizational\u00a0change management<\/a>\u00a0assistance, development of\u00a0coaching<\/a>\u00a0skills,\u00a0process analysis<\/a>,\u00a0technology<\/a>\u00a0implementation,\u00a0strategy<\/a>\u00a0development, or operational improvement services. Management consultants often bring their own proprietary\u00a0methodologies<\/a>\u00a0or frameworks to guide the identification of problems, and to serve as the basis for recommendations for more effective or\u00a0efficient<\/a>\u00a0ways of performing work tasks.<\/p>\n

Management consulting refers generally to the provision of\u00a0business services<\/a>, but there are numerous specialties such as\u00a0strategic management<\/a>,\u00a0information technology consulting<\/a>,\u00a0human resource consulting<\/a>, financial consulting,\u00a0virtual management<\/a>\u00a0consulting,\u00a0design<\/a>,\u00a0operations management<\/a>\u00a0consulting,\u00a0engineering management<\/a>,\u00a0management science<\/a>, and others, many of which overlap, and most of which are offered by the larger diversified consultancies. So-called “boutique” consultancies, however, are smaller organizations focusing upon a few of such specialties.<\/p>\n

The 1990s saw an increase in what has been termed a ‘future-based’ approach. This emphasized language and alignment of people within an organization to a common vision of the future of the organization, as set out in the book\u00a0Three Laws of Performance<\/i>. The essential concept here was that the way people perform is seen to correlate to the way that world occurs for them, and that future-based language could alter the way the future actually occurs for them. These principles were increasingly employed in organizations that had experienced a market transition or a merger requiring the blending of two\u00a0corporate cultures<\/a>. However, towards the end of the 1990s the approach declined due to a perception that the concept outlined in this book did not in practice offer added value to organizations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
