Welcome to Vitamae. The topic for today is "So You Want To Be a Consultant".
I was in the consulting field for over 14 years. I have many fond memories of being a technical expert, trusted advisor, mentor, sponsor, and more. With this podcast, I hope that you are inspired to learn more about becoming a consultant. There are so many amazing skills that you learn by becoming one, and many great relationships that you get to build and experience throughout the years.
The skills that you need to master: Communication, Stakeholder Management, Empathizing with the Customer, Planning, Paying Attention to Detail, Time Management, and Understanding in-scope and out-of-scope project requirements.
Project phases: Internal Kick-Off, External Kick-Off, Discovery, Design, Implementation, Testing, Go-Live, First Day Support, and Closing the project.
Building great relationships, becoming a trusted advisor and understanding the impact you make when successfully completing any project that you are a part of.
Learning to build communication skills, branding, proficiency, and building trust with the business partners are vital skills.Follow Vitamae and or join the discussion on the following sites:
