ConsultE
TLC invites you, as an independent consultant, entrepreneur, professional expert in your field, Trainer, Coach or Facilitator, or someone transitioning from your current stage in life to “being your own boss,” to be an active learner in our 2nd Cohort of Talent, Leadership and Change’s (TLC) Consulting Essentials Course (ConsultE). Aprogram specifically designed for individuals who may want to transform their perspective and practice about helping create conditions for success — for themselves and others.
If you're curious about whether this program is right for you in helping you on your consulting journey, you might want to ask yourself the following questions:
Are you looking to be part of the "gig economy" fast?
Are you a subject matter expert and are aspiring to unlock your potential?
Are you internal or external to a client or consulting organization and feel under-optimized?
Have been consulting for some time but need a refresh or restart ?
Do you want to discover how you can demonstrate the value you add to your clients and stakeholders?
If so, then ConsultE will help you transform your skill sets into Strategic Strengths-based Consulting
To be better at what you're already good at through helping others solve complex problems.
Leverage your expertise and experience to help multiple stakeholders with shared goals.
To monetize your talents as a first or second income source as an Independent Consultant or to add value to your team by being an Internal Consultant
To realize your deeper and higher calling of making this world a "better place."
