Good Beginner Book
This book is a great book for those just beginning in the consulting field. The content is very helpful and credible because Hubert Bermont is a successful consultant himself. Bermont's main objective is how to be able to cash in on your own experience rather than work for someone else. I think this is good advice for those interested in external consulting because you must learn through your own experiences and mistakes in order to be succssful. This book is easy to read and understand and I would definitely recommend buying this book and using it to your advantage!

the classic - this was the first book ever on the topic

this is the classic book.

it was the first book ever on the topic.

could I want more? yes.
read howard shenson's book for the graduate degree.
this book is the place to start.

supplemental works by bob bly (not robert bly - he's the poet), jerry buchanan, jeffrey lant, joe karbo, john kremer, ted nicholas, et al may fill in special topic areas especially in the marketing of services.

this book is worth reading if you have any interest in being an independent consultant.

Who needs any other book on consulting?
My wife read this book to me on a road trip just after I was laid off from a job, and by the time we got home, I felt charged up and ready to get started. The tips on personal networking, proposals, negotiation and formalizing the deal were especially helpful to me.

This book does not come with rose-colored glasses. If you're motivated but a little uncertain, this book gives the advice and reassurance you need to get started. If you're willing to put in the effort and be totally honest with yourself, it's no-nonsense all the way.

I would never have known that the author was not in my field. It's one of the best 'professional improvement' books I've seen.
