A Booz By Any Other Name...
|
|
It’s not every day that we have the opportunity to have the new CEO of a brand new, billion-dollar management consulting firm on our cover. This issue, we have Shumeet Banerji, the first CEO in the history of Booz & Company. (Booz Allen Hamilton, meanwhile, sold a majority stake of its public and government business to the Carlyle Group for $2.5 billion and will continue to operate that business from McLean, Va.)

It’s Sure Not Easy Being Green

We just recently moved our editorial offices out of New York City and across the river to Newark, N.J. Even though Consulting magazine still maintains a midtown Manhattan location that I’ll be working at from time to time, the majority of the editorial work will take place at the New Jersey office, which happens to be about a 25-minute door-to-door drive from my home. After four years of a 75-minute commute (on a good day) and two small children at home, this, of course, is very welcome news. But here’s the problem: I could still take the train to the Newark office in about 50 minutes, a significantly shorter commute than I was used to. I did this for about a week before I realized how much time I could save by driving.

Smallville
|

Bob Cliff’s seen a thing or two in his day. Bob is the founder and CEO of Oakland, Calif.-based Cliff Consulting. He founded the firm way back in 1972 and quickly grew it to about 15 billable consultants. And that’s pretty much where it is today. Since he’s owned and operated a small firm since the days Richard Nixon was president, I think Bob more than qualifies to offer up his perspective on the current state of the small consulting firm. “I suspect that there are more small firms than ever before, and I think they’re—well we’re—having a bigger impact than we’ve ever had,” Bob told me a few weeks ago.

I really like Consulting magazine and visit the Web site often. I see you’ve highlighted some amazingly bright and successful people on your site, but I have learned that success alone will not sustain us. As a principal SAP consultant for16 years and wellness coach specializing in working with women in technology, I’ve come up with a few pointers I’d like to a share for time management.

Honoring Greatness
|
|
Earlier this month, we began a new chapter with the inaugural event of Consulting magazine’s Achievement Awards: Women Leaders in Consulting. It’s the first of what we anticipate will be an annual event recognizing the very best women leaders in the profession. On Nov. 1, more than 160 industry leaders gathered at the Waldorf=Astoria in New York for a gala event honoring five women leaders in consulting.
