Is that enough? No, better consultants are needed to handle the complexity and changing nature ofbusiness. Academe is in the best position to provide the critical thinking preparation necessary.

Chapter authors provide examplesof innovative programs, topical approaches for courses, and thoughtful reflections on the role academia can playin preparing better consultants. There are lessons for business schools, consultancies, and aspiring and practicingconsultants.
