Although there are extensive parallels, the grad school pool is decently different because they tend to be older (ballpark around 28 or so when they started their consulting career) and for the most part had prior work experience.

Confidence doesn’t just follow success, it’s also an important driver behind achieving future outcomes.

And when leaders over-function by keeping too much work for themselves, they allow those around them to under-function. We all know how important it is to delegate — both to help employees grow and to create a more collaborative, empowered, productive team.

During one of my recent consulting experiences, I received a piece of advice from my supervisor that saved our engagement. His advice was specific to consulting, but applicable to other areas of business too. I was assigned to a typical strategy engagement – should client X selling product Y increase sales in market Z?

One of my clients asked for my help gaining a sole-source recognition with a government agency which has asked if she’d bid on an RFP (request for proposal). RFPs are terrible devices, produced and evaluated by low-level people who then select from the respondents and forward (usually he least expensive) proposals to the actual buyers. The questions asked are ludicrous and based on an hourly-payment mentality.

Many costs of doing business are valid in the commercial environment, but for Government contracts, they are expressly unallowable.

“Do you want to know what I think?” The best answer might be, “no.” Because this person is not very good at offering useful feedback. Because you didn’t create this product or service or performance to please this person. They’re not the customer. Because you’re not going to revise this any time soon. The movie is made, and specific feedback isn’t going to get the movie remade.
