Extract Value from Consultants

It has happened at too many corporations, both large and small: a new system or process is under consideration and management hires a consulting firm to tackle the new project. The consultants work for months, use company resources and are paid large sums of money, but in the end, the new project flops or a loss of focus on the project dooms the effort to failure.

In Extract Value from Consultants, long-time consultants Gordon Perchthold and Jenny Sutton give managers a step-by-step approach to choosing the right consultants, along with advice on how to manage them more effectively over the life of the project to maximize their value to the organization.
