To be straight with the fact, there are hundreds of thousands of management consultants in all sizes and types of firms as well as the majority who are independent consultants. Great consultants have helping personalities combined with high-level analytical and communication skills. It is like when the project goes well, the feeling of accomplishment is seen in the leader, his team and even the company but if I talk about the other side, if it fails the blame goes on the client but no one is ready to take the blame, neither the client nor the other party. Many join this profile for trips, money and prestige of being at this level but it involves lot of risk taking and on spot decision making as well.
