The funeral of the big 4

This discussion is the - often called - tip of the ice berg. Not only did large businesses pay the education of students to their way to consultants - the projects often where the execution of theorized dreams that just didn't deliver the expected ROI.

Business process automation and low touch sales models did all one thing: carefully destroy the customer relationship to indeed a "zero touch sales model" because businesses lost the touch to the market entirely.

The Social Media Academy for instance goes new ways. Educating consultants to become experts BEFORE they enter the space. At the same time we educate the internal teams of an organization so that consultants don't come in as the "men in black" steer things up and go, but work with the internal teams based on the same principals and philosophies - the only difference: The consultants bring experience from many projects.

The trio of Education, research and consultancy may inspire the "old world" of the consulting business to thrive to new heights.
