Series Editor Anthony F. Buono, Bentley University
This volue focuses on a relatively neglected area of management
consulting, the education of consultants. In today's business world, we find
training programs provided by consultancies, certification programs provided by
professional organizations, on-the-job training of consultants with formal or
informal supervision, self-taught professionals, and some academic programs and
courses. Is that enough? No, better consultants are needed to handle the complexity and changing nature of
business. Academe is in the best position to provide the critical thinking preparation necessary. Yet, academic
institutions have been slow in embracing this challenge. The role of academia needs to grow in magnitude and in
certain directions that educate consultants beyond industry training practices. Chapter authors provide examples
of innovative programs, topical approaches for courses, and thoughtful reflections on the role academia can play
in preparing better consultants. There are lessons for business schools, consultancies, and aspiring and practicing
consultants. |
