Smooth and Calm Turbulent and Churning Working Conditions of the consultant……….

What the customer wants from the consultant ….. Clear Confusing

Sometimes you feel like …. A hired gun An invasion force

Boundaries of IT consulting …. Keeping old technology just above disaster Cobol, PL/1, Batch Processing Finding new ways to get to old places Java, HTML, Interactive Websites

Sometimes a Consultant …. Stands alone wondering how to get there In a team climbing to new heights of success

Ideas brought to light by consultants …. May be old ideas injected into new situations May be a totally new creation

Powerful ideas that change their world Old ideas that make little impact And Sometimes ….

Some Consultants live …. By staying close to house and home Take their home with them from place to place
