This book discusses how systems thinking and approaches can aid
management consultants in navigating the complexities of client
advisory in current realities. It thereby brings to the forefront
aspects of holism, flexibility and responsibility - the keys to
success in today's world. Management consultants are called in to
offer an independent expert view of an organisation/ a situation
and are expected to address some of the most pressing problems
businesses face. The client does not exist in a silo, but in a
complex environment that lies at the intersection of a range of
internal and external factors that are often unseen and
unpredictable. The organisation itself presents an alien territory
that the consultant is expected to acclimatise to within a very
short period of time, and come up with solutions that "insiders"
would not have been able to visualise. The book presents a range of
ideas, concepts and reference cases that are relevant and topical
for consultants in their daily work. It argues that systems
thinking allows holism and flexibility in management consulting -
while holism is about the ability to encompass the environmental
and organisational complexity, flexibility is about the ability to
think creatively and adopt different approaches to accommodate this
complexity. With commentaries, case studies, conceptual models and
perspectives that cut across multiple industries, sectors and
countries, this book is a valuable resource for academics and
professionals alike. The book's inner pages and its page on
Springer.com contain additional comments providing perspectives of
clients, industry experts and academia.
