 For the CEOs best friend March 25, 2008

I was impressed by the few first pages in the book. But as you read along there is very little added.
In my humble opinion the book becomes quite self centric to mister Weiss. If you have access to a lot of top level CEOs and you need somebody to tell you you should charge them fat fees which would exceed "normal" hourly rates, then this book is for you, but then again why would you be after a book like this in that situation.
Sure there are good lines here and there, but overall for me it was not too much fun reading. It is quite US centric and many parts are on the edge of being childish, see chapters on technology for example.
This is the last Weiss book I'll buy.
CONSULTING AS A WAY OF GETTING VARIETY IN OUR LIVES December 14, 2007
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
The Renaissance Soul: Life Design for People with Too Many Passions to Pick Just One One of the things I find most fascinating about consulting is that I can be working with one type of company on one type of issue this month and another with a different issue next month. "But don't you have to be an expert in one field and consult on that?" people ask me. And yes, there are many consultants who do just that, specializing in just one field. However, for those of us who prefer variety and combination over concentrating on just one thing, Alan's book has the perfect answer. With the approach and skill sets he describes so well here, we can be an expert in the field of consulting! I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to focus on the generic process of providing this service rather than on one particular field.
Great Advice and it Works! November 3, 2007
I have a very successful consulting practice and reference this book on a regular basis. It's a great reminder of the foundational things you never want to stray from. And, it has some great tips that when put in play, make things happen. For my $20 investment, I've realized thousands in new and additional business.
The most valuable business book I own! August 14, 2007

I am very happy that I found and studied this book when I did. After a few years of consulting this book helped make my business more successful, confirmed ideas that took years to develop and gave a clear plan of action and procedures.
If i may borrow from Alan...
