Lifetime Lessons in Consulting

Lifetime Lessons in Consulting answers two questions: 1. What does a consultant do? 2. What makes a good life? Through stories, anecdotes, and lessons to share, this book puts the human face on consulting as a calling. It can be used as a companion book to complement a traditional text, or it can be a stand-alone book for someone who wonders what it's like to be a consultant. It's one person's story spanning over fifty years of experience as a professor and consultant.Lifetime Lessons in Consulting is about wholeness. The ivory tower joins the real world in these pages. Kurt Lewin, the father of applied psychology, said, &quote;Nothing is more useful than a good theory;&quote; and William James, the father of American psychology, said, &quote;A theory without application is useless.&quote; This book combines theory and experience to make a veritable smorgasbord of lessons learned from the life of the author. It's a fascinating feast that is both whole and wholesome for both new and experienced consultants.
