Management Consultants

Management consultants assist individual clients and organizations on strategies to improve their performance through detailed analysis of existing business and organizational structures. Management Consultants look at all areas of a business operation, including logistics management, risk management, business development and business processes.

Management consultants are often brought into a company to assist changing the way things are done. Change Management is a challenging process for most organizations, who often seek independent assistance in this specialized area of business practice. A Management Consultant can bring a fresh perspective to an organization, and provides advice that is independent and without prejudice. Businesses seek the services of a Management Consultant for a range of general services including business planning, benchmarking and executive relocations. Management Consultants also specialise in certain business practices such as insolvency, workplace management, salary packaging, project management, portfolio consulting and purchasing.

Individuals also use the services of a Management Consultant for marketing services for a small enterprise or to provide business coaching and leadership consultancy. Professional Management Consultants in Australia are represented by The Institute of Management Consultants (IMC), a professional body governed by a professional Code of Conduct with the aim of maintaining internationally recognised standards and practices. Management Consultants often have a background in Business Finance or Accounting, however, it’s important to ensure that consultation takes place with an accredited or certified professional.
