Reviews for The Consultant's Handbook: A Practical Guide to Delivering High-value and Differentiated Services in a Competitive Marketplace

It s a clearly-presented book that s clearly applicable to public relations consultants I m placing [it] on my bookshelf alongside the classic texts on consulting by David Maister (Behind the Spin, June 2015) Enough good material here to interest those embarking on this career path (The Irish Times, July 2015)
