Master Advanced Consulting Skills and Deliver High-Impact Results

INTRODUCTION TO THE COURSE

Specialist or technical expertise is not sufficient to be an effective consultant. You need skills, processes and models that frame your expertise to deliver value to clients and improve organisational performance successfully.

Acquiring consulting skills is one of the most valuable investments that you can make in your career development. Organisations in the 21st century are changing more rapidly than in the past, and functional relationships have become more complex. The skills and experience required to deliver and sustain significant performance improvement have grown at a very high speed. As part of this trend, consulting as an advanced managerial activity has been one of the fastest-growing modern business sectors.

A successful career in the future will depend to an increasing extent on the acquisition and application of leading-edge consulting skills – for individuals who either aspire to a top-level, general management position or seek to move into a specialist career as an internal (or external) consultant. This training course will put into context the challenges and rewards of adding high-level consulting skills to your existing experience to achieve either of these goals. This KC Academy training course will set out the specific characteristics and demands of top-level consulting. It will guide achieving success in developing your career experience to include this increasingly important skill set.

This intensive training course will highlight:

  • How to add strategic and operational value as a consultant
  • The skills required in a top-level consultant
  • Meeting the challenges of a consulting relationship
  • Scoping and structuring a complex consulting assignment
  • Presentation of ideas for change and development
