"This is no airy-fairy self-help book. This is nuts and bolts how to move from corporate to consultancy by someone who has been there, done it, got the tee-shirt.

It will challenge you to take the leap of faith you have been putting off forever, but it won't leave you just jumping off a cliff, instead it will give you the tools you need so that you do not crash to the ground but rather reach new heights." Sue Benoke

This book motivates you to take action, even if it is a small step it is a move in the right direction.

Whilst this book is aimed at anyone going into HR consulting, I want to give anyone that is finding employment difficult, for whatever reason, hope that consulting is a great alternative to the employed world.
