I received some great feedback from our last conversation about reciprocating referrals. It seems like most of us are in the same boat … we get more referrals than we could ever possibly hope to return. So we do our best by promising to do good work. It makes for an interesting segue into today’s discussion. Customer experience is all the rage now. Everywhere you look (if you’re looking), businesses are trying to redefine what it means to be their customer so they can keep the customer.

As a generalist consultant you are unlikely to need any statistics for day-to-day project work (there are specialists to call on for situations where it’s needed). The workaday numerical tool is Excel which, with the “Analysis Toolpak”, gives most consultants more than enough of what they need. However, you are likely to build a lot of financial models (again using Excel).

My oldest daughter and I have been taking a training class together for some volunteer work we want to do together later in the year. It was the first time my teenager and I have been classmates. The class consisted of 20 students, half of which were teenagers, with the other half being people in their 30s and 40s. As we went through the technical material, I found myself raising my hand every few minutes to ask a question.

Not many jokes made about consultants are actually funny, but I’ve always liked the one about the shepherd. There he is, minding his herd on a remote and rocky valley (Northern Greece, I like to imagine, somewhere near the Macedonian border, all olives and sunshine), when a sleek black car pulls up and a snappily dressed young man gets out, carrying a briefcase.

This post is the first in a series of articles exploring concepts of one of the lesser known fields of economic study – health economics. When one thinks of economics their mind usually turns to concepts of trade, resource allocation, and other similarly business-related concepts. However, ideas of supply and demand have gone beyond traditional goods and services and onto the more human notion of health.
