19. Develop your Consulting Skills to Deepen Your Influence with Deb Zahn and Prina Shah

Consulting is a crucial skill for ANYONE in the workplace, but if you lack it, here’s what could happen:

  • Miscommunication
  • Failed projects
  • A waste of time and money
  • Your professional brand being tarnished

And all of the above is probably because the project lead (or you) couldn’t influence or consult.
