Currently Playing: How To Be A Consultant - Report Writing by Simon Wallace

Benefit from the wisdom and expertise of experienced consultants to maximise your success in consultancy! This programme will be particularly valuable for new and aspiring consultants. It is a series of short, interactive, TED-style talks, where expert speakers discuss success factors with an audience that harnesses the wisdom of experienced consultants with the energy of newcomers. It is aimed at new entrants to the profession as well as experienced IT practitioners from all specialities who are considering a move into consultancy. We also encourage experienced consultants to join the audience and share their own thoughts, advice and experiences. The sessions will be around 15-20 minutes of presentation with a further 10-15 minutes allowed for contributions from other experienced attendees and questions from the audience. Three topics are covered in each 90-minute event. The talks will also be made available as a set of 21 videos to provide a permanent resource for people starting a consultancy career. This talk is about Report Writing. About the speaker Simon has 34 years’ experience working in global, large, medium, small and sole practitioner consulting firms.
