Discussion: What you learned
Course Description Performance consultants consult whether they are working inside an organization serving other groups and functions of that organization or working outside as an external consultant. Consulting is more than hanging out a shingle and sharing advice.

A large part of consultants work is displayed in presentations; therefore, this problem-based course will require students to build and deliver a variety of presentations highlighting their consulting expertise and building decision-maker buy-in for proposed plans.

Course Description
Performance consultants consult whether they are working inside an organization serving other
groups and functions of that organization or working outside as an external consultant.
Consulting is more than hanging out a shingle and sharing advice. This course explores the
process of defining consulting services, building partnerships, demonstrating added value, and
showing that a systematic approach generates results. A large part of consultants work is
displayed in presentations; therefore, this problem-based course will require students to build
and deliver a variety of presentations highlighting their consulting expertise and building
decision-maker buy-in for proposed plans.
Course Objectives

set of interventions.
