Are consultants worth it?

Dilbert Cartoon - Consulting

Over the years consultants have acquired some negative reputations. When the term “consultant” comes to mind, many of us imagine the stop-at-nothing, backstabbing, money grubbing consultant like the lead character Marty Kaan from Showtime’s comedy “House of Lies”. But as a consultant myself, I’d like to eliminate the stigma that consultants are like that fictional character…

Although consultants can be thought of as the necessary evil, consultants are extremely beneficial.

Reputable consultants have years of experience and outsider knowledge that help organizations move forward in a time of stagnation. Good consultants are able to identify problems, prepare solutions, and implement strategies to help stabilize and grow an organization. Consultants bring a fresh outside perspective that can lead to new innovations.

Utilizing consultants strategically can help your company succeed. Consultants are investments that help with the success of your organization.

So think of us as the necessary AND beneficial evil that is worth your time and money to utilize.
