Consulting

Consulting

Consulting is the new trending business model!

Why is consulting so trendy these days?

I see promotions online, where some people are selling their course to become a consultant and sometimes I ask myself if they really know what it means to be a consultant.

I finished the year 2017 with a personal message, also providing an outlook for 2018.
