There’s been a lot of noise lately about the “death” of consulting, especially with the rise of artificial intelligence (AI). But as Luk Smeyers aptly put it, “Consulting is not dead. Stop the nonsense.” We couldn’t agree more.
What’s fading isn’t consulting itself—it’s a legacy model that relied on large teams of junior consultants, endless slide decks, and hefty fees. That version of consulting is being replaced by something leaner, smarter, and more impactful. And we’ve been ahead of that curve for years.
Real Consulting Drives Real Change
True consulting isn’t about delivering a strategy in a deck and walking away. It’s about helping leaders and teams align on what needs to change, why it matters, and how to make it happen. It’s about guiding behavior shifts that lead to lasting transformation, not just temporary fixes.
We believe that ownership and adoption come from within. That’s why our work focuses on enabling leaders to activate their teams, build new capabilities, and let go of outdated practices. Change is hard, but with the right support, it’s absolutely possible.
