Consultants have become a common feature in organizational change initiatives, involved in both providing advice and in implementing ideas and solutions. However, management consultancy is still often misunderstood or criticized for its lack of theoretical underpinning. The book offers applied theoretical insights from academics that both teach and practice management consultancy, and identifies emerging themes with critical discourse and rich empirical case study evidence to show the reader how management consultancy projects are implemented. Real-world projects are featured, as written up as cases featuring organizations from multi-national corporations to the public sector.
