As consultants, we are brought into organisations to solve problems or assist with a particular challenge. Exactly what the client needs will vary of course. It might be a review of a program or service; diagnosis of glitches in the system to identify solutions; an organisational restructure; a strategic plan; development of a new policy. The situation you land in is invariably complex; there is generally history, personalities, competing ideas, deadlines, politics, tension; and everyone has hig

For many professionals, making time for learning isn’t a priority. Often, it isn’t because of a lack of interest, as many top performers thrive when they can face new challenges and expose themselves to new information. The issue tends to be the feeling that there are not enough hours in the day to handle everything on their plate, so training tends to get placed on the backburner.

When you take a finance class, you learn the principle of asset diversification. Diversification means you’re able to maximize your overall financial return across a wide variety of market conditions while reducing your losses.

Too often, organizations want to budget for an entire year. The managers run around for two or three months in advance of that fiscal year, attempting to predict a ton of things: Estimates for not-well-defined projects or features, Capital equipment or tool needs, “Headcount” aka, people needed. Then, the organization doesn't finalize the budget until after the year starts.

I suggested ways to think about more agile budgeting in part 1. I didn't tell you why. How do you budget your own money and time? If you're like me, you have a plan for the year. I evaluate the plan—my products, services, and clients—on a regular basis. I always evaluate monthly. Sometimes, I evaluate more often. That's because I manage my company in a similar way as your managers manage your organization.

Several years ago, one of my clients taught me a great framework to describe how to be influential with others in the workplace. It’s a communication approach you can use to manage direct reports, manage colleagues, and even to manage your boss. The framework involves three steps: See. Think. Do. If you can alter how somebody “sees" a particular situation, they automatically “think" about the situation differently.

When two companies are going through a merger or an acquisition (M&A), the branding strategy is often the last thing that senior management thinks about, wrongly assuming that it’s more a creative decision than a business call. This is a huge mistake. There’s no clearer signal to the market regarding the intentions behind the M&A than the decision about the post-M&A branding strategy.
