Session
7 or So Habits of Highly Effective Consultants
After 20 years in the industry, I’ve seen first-hand that technical expertise alone doesn’t make a great consultant. The real differentiators? The habits, mindsets, and interpersonal strategies that shape how we engage with clients, teams, and complex challenges.
This is why in this this session I walk you through a set of recurring patterns—drawn from experience, coaching, observing exceptional peers, broad reading content, and plenty of trial and error—so that you can consistently elevate the impact of your consulting interactions. These habits are practical, adaptable, and immediately actionable.
Whether you're a seasoned consultant or just starting out, you’ll leave with a toolkit of proven techniques to:
- Build trust and credibility
- Navigate ambiguity with confidence
- Communicate with clarity and influence
- Foster collaborative problem-solving
- Reflect and grow continuously
If you're ready to sharpen your consulting edge and take your professional development to the next level, this session is your launchpad.
