Although this book presents a framework that helps to manage a consultancy project, it is important to consider the context in which the model will be applied. The world of consulting is driven by dramatic change, uncertainty, short-termism, and demanding and conflicting work. This section considers some of the drivers that make the world of consulting what it is: the commercial nature of the industry; the hidden forces that drive change; the way that energy ripples can distort an assignment; and the effect of erosion on organizational structure.
