How to Use Consultants

Abstract

The larger, or more complex, an organisation becomes, the more people utilise third parties. A third party is a person or group of people who assist the continued development of the organisation by helping to diagnose problem areas, generate new strategies, implement solutions and review the continuous process of change and development. Third parties are facilitators who develop activities that are not the responsibility of any full‐time employee. A third party is the additional member to supervisor/subordinate or colleague/colleague relationships. In fact, we are talking of client/consultant relationships.
