For example, an article or white paper, your new book, an introduction to a sought-after peer, or insights from a project you conducted recently. Common wisdom says you should offer some sort of value to prospects when you reach out to them. What if that common wisdom is not only wrong, but backwards? I’m sure you’ve seen or heard advice that consultants should only reach out to prospects when they have a compelling, useful tidbit to offer.

As our recent white paper on current trends argues, that’s forcing a rethink. Inorganic growth is no longer a black and white issue. Consulting firms have been on a shopping spree in recent years: Even allowing for momentary pauses for breath, it’s been a fast-paced, competitive race to see who can acquire what, ideally—but rarely—for the right price.

Today, I work as a grief counselor. I have received much training to prepare me for each of these roles. I’ve been taught to listen, to ask questions, build trust, accompany one on his journey, and ultimately help him move from despondence to a new stage of life.

In the Information Age, what you know determines who you know. The most effective networking strategy I’ve found has nothing to do with conferences, cocktail hours, cold emails, or any of the common ideas you hear. 1) Do interesting things. 2) Share them publicly.

The paper was perfect in its balance between opacity and thinness, but the margins were too small. Why would a missing half-inch strip of white paper matter? A publisher recently sent me a 1,000 page book. The production designer made a choice–push the text all the way to the edges, allowing the book to shave 20 or 30 pages in length. Sensible. Except now, every single page seems cramped. The book is tense and can’t relax, and feels faintly amateurish.
