Why Do Consultants Suck?

 

Let’s face it, very few people sing the praises of their consultants.

They come in, often with fancy suits, and pretend to know your business when actually, they don’t. They always seem to know just the solution. They make a lot of noise, make a lot of pretty looking slides, and then deliver a fancy playbook and a huge bill. Dirty little secret, most of that huge bill is for expensive consultants, but it’s a junior consultant fresh out of college actually doing most of the work. What do you get out of it? Internal conflicts, large bills, and more confusion than you had before. 

At Synthology, we are flipping that paradigm. We know how organizations learn, but we don’t assume we know what makes you unique. We focus on your people and ensure that human centered ways of working are at the core each step of the way with change enablement embedded throughout the process. Human centered means working with your people, listening carefully, and taking organizational dynamics into account. In short,  Synthology brings the best out of your people.

Our Studio Approach offers access to a multidisciplinary team of talent strategy experts eager to learn about your challenges and understand your pain points without the massive overhead that comes with a traditional consulting firm bill. We work ourselves out of our jobs by making sticky solutions and providing program success coaching, not just a fancy looking PowerPoint playbook.  Most of all, we are fun and easy to do work with.
