Associates

We also have a network of associate consultants with expertise in related fields. In some ways, internalConsulting resembles what Alvin Toffler called a “shifting constellation”. In other words, a network of experts with a common mindset who work together but also gain experience working with other groups. Unlike a firm with salaried consultants, we will always provide the right person for the specific job, rather than the expensive resource with white space in their diary.

You may be assured however that all internalConsulting consultants are of the highest calibre. Before commencing any project we provide full details on any consultants / facilitators involved and are more than happy for you to meet with them. In fact, we positively encourage it; any development activity is a partnership and it is essential that partners understand and feel comfortable with each other.
