<p><strong>Before we go too far, let's address the elephant in the room: the title of our book, <em>Don't Blame Your F#ck Up On The Consultant.</em></strong></p><p>The short answer is that we wanted a provocative title to grab your attention and convey our book's central message boldly and unapologetically. The title's adult humor aims to connect with you as a reader who has firsthand experience with poor consulting engagement results, making the book both relatable and genuine. Our book addresses criticisms and misconceptions about consultants, primarily that they serve as mere scapegoats for broader organizational failures.</p><p>In this book, we discuss how to be the kind of client consultants dream of working with. We also explore what makes a better consulting client or even a good prospective client for those who have yet to work with a consultant. This flips the script. We often talk about finding the right consultant to hire, but what about being the right client? What we share in this book goes well beyond that. It's all about understanding the dynamics of a true partnership and how to get the best from any collaboration.</p><p>We wanted to be bold, irreverent, and authentic. We believed that using profanity in our title would pique your curiosity enough to pick up this book and start reading.</p><p>Were we wrong?</p><p></p>
