Do you need a consultant?
Why People Use Consultants
Every person in business will at some time need professional advice. To make a relationship with a consultant or adviser succeed, the key requirements are confidence, honesty and trust, based on a shared understanding of professionalism and the importance of businesslike delivery.
Business managers use consultants because of the expertise they offer, their independent viewpoint and the resources they provide. Expertise can be defined as specialist skills, deep experience, insight, awareness of best practices, research skills, and creativity. Independence can be defined as a detached viewpoint, impartiality, and unbiased analysis. Resources can be defined as cost effectiveness and cost savings.
Alternatives to an External Consultant
Before you seek out a consultant, you need to figure out if your company can do the job itself without resorting to outside help. For example, your in-house staff might be able to handle the job with some additional training, or you might be able to use your company's own internal consultants, which would probably be cheaper. You could also consult a sister organization or a current business partner. Further, you might look at university and college departments, volunteer advisers, or even Internet discussion groups if you are seeking help.
Your choice not to use a formal outside consultancy process should be based on what you want to achieve, the price of getting it wrong, the urgency of the work, and the relative talent levels of the people who you would be asking to do the work.
