Observations on typical Consulting work styles

• FIRST, consulting concepts come and go like fashion. The uniform, but superficially varied approaches are often tried without taking  into account the specifics of the individual company sufficiently.
• SECONDLY, simple Power Point and Excel illustrations have long been routine. However, generic illustrations do often not solve the client problems.
• THIRD, the methods used are mostly standardized and mechanistically. This working concept is often mandatory for management consultants. The task of implementation remains to the client which comes at such consultant projects usually too short.  
  

What can we learn from this?

• Management concepts launched by traditional consultants often pass the real problems of the clients, create fear among the workforce and limit the collective learning of the company. Are such concepts really worth what they cost?
• It remains the question: Why do competent top managers allow  often young, inexperienced people to advise  them on their very own field of expertise?
