Consulting Scenario Consulting Scenario On our team, there exists a dearth of skills and interests. This will prove to be extremely valuable as we consider a consulting firm that we can open and be successful with. To utilize the various gifts present on our team, it is important to first ensure that we are maximizing our ability to think critically through problems, provide solutions, and then implement those strategies into an effective product that we can offer to our clients (Driskell et al, 2006, p. 252). The first step towards ensuring this reality is to understand just what our various gifts are, so that we can better organize and structure our team.

Being a person that pays attention to detail, I would see myself as a note taker and organizer. As others propose ideas, I can then assimilate tasks to individual team members based on their ascribed strengths and weaknesses (Miller, 2008, p. 19). Working with a timeline, I can then strive to propose set deadlines that each task should be completed under in order that we are successful. In addition, I will work to allow enough flexibility to account for any last minute emergencies that may arise. The key component in a consulting firm is to deliver a quality product to customers, on time, every time (Larbi and Springfield, 2004, p. 102). That should be our primary focus as a team moving forward. During this program of study, I have learned the importance of follow-through in the business world. As such, it would be my aim to be a part of a consulting firm who only accepts projects that they know fits into their area of expertise and they are confident they can perform an excellent and effective job. If we do that, then we should be well on our way to success.
