Growth
Nearly half of small consultancies fail within their first five years, but over 250 are sold every month. How do you ensure you are in the right group? How can you successfully grow a consulting firm? How do you maximise the value of your consultancy for an exit or investment? This is the first evidence-based book to tackle these questions.

Can Barnabus save his ne...
