Consultants get a bad rap. Some of it deserved. But the founders in this section are the real deal. People who’ve built consulting firms, advisory practices, and service businesses that actually deliver results. Not just slide decks. Results.
These interviews cover every flavor of consulting. Management consulting. Strategy. Operations. HR. Technology implementation. The kind of work where you walk into someone else’s mess and try to make it better, which requires a very specific combination of confidence and humility.
The founders here talk about how they built their practices from scratch. How they landed their first clients. How they price their services, which, if you’ve ever tried to price consulting, you know is more art than science. Also how they scale without burning out. That’s the question every consultant eventually faces.
You’ll find conversations about the shift from corporate to independent. Building a team versus staying solo. Niching down versus staying broad. The pros and cons of productizing services. And the constant challenge of doing the work while also finding the work. If you’re in consulting or thinking about it, these are people worth learning from.
