If a sports bettor bets a team to win and that team loses, he also has a negative return on investment.Calculating a return on investmen

So, You Want To Be A Consultant! 4 Steps To Take On The Pathway To Success
During my career as a manager and since I myself became a consultant in 1987, I have had many colleagues and acquaintances move into the consultancy profession. Sometimes this move was by choice as a genuine career move. In the late 90s however, the proliferation of consultants was exacerbated by the downsizing of organisations and so, people who had been “cut” and who were unable to find a similar role in another organisation tried the consulting path – often with little success and a great deal of pain.The following suggestions on becoming a consultant have been developed as a result of my own experience, my advice sessions with colleagues starting out on their consultancy career journey and the lessons I have learned from watching people either succeed or fail to make the grade as a consultant.

Whether consumer expectations have increased or services have declined over the last few years is debatable. The fact is, perception is truth, in the consumers’ eyes.Having stated that, some businesses still seem to excel in customer service and get rave reviews from consumers, surely they have a different strategy.Internal Customers Remain The SameIt is my view that everyone joins a business team to do their best. It is the culture of the business that affects their performance level. There is an African saying “the boss casts a long shadow” and this is especially true when it comes to the standard of customer service we experience in businesses.
