I would suggest browsing the WIC blog to start. It's free to the public and you can use the Search feature to find anything you're interested in. If you become a WIC member, you'll have access to a database of articles. I don't know if there is anything specific to your question in there, but there are a lot of very talented, knowledgeable women in WIC, so chances are you'll find something. And if not in the articles, you could always post a question to the email list. Check it out and see if it's worth for you to join. Has been a great experience for many.

After doing marketing and PR work consistently with previous employers (not as part of my job description, though!), I was encouraged to start doing consulting work. I am a *very* new company and will be sending out my 2nd contract later this week. Very excited about this, I must say. To respond, I have decided to include my "Scope of Work" as part of my contract, as each contract will be tailored to each client after my initial consultation with them. I think that is a wonderful idea, and I am going to keep that tucked in the back of my mind as perhaps a "leave behind" to give to these clients after the consultation, *or* as an introductory packet when I call on businesses. I just discovered WIC and I am delighted / elated / ecstatic. I love being part of a greater community of fellow businesswomen! Thank you! - Kari Hi, Gay ~

It was nice to discover this site. I'm actually looking for articles relating to starting a consulting career, although, I know it requires lots of experience. Hope you could help me out. Just to give you an idea, I just recently decline a very tempting offer from a MNC knowing that the nature of the job they're offering is not what I really want. I just graduated last year and currently employed in an auditing firm. I just want to know if spending another year with the firm will be worthwhile, considering I want to pursue consulting as my long-term career. Thanks in advance! Hi!

I've been consulting in the areas of organization development and executive coaching for over 20 years, and the business consulting process has certainly changed in the past ten years in my areas of expertise. I would love to dialogue with any of you who work as consultants in international organizations. I often find that my first work is to coach my client in how to appropriately establish a relationship between us, so that both of us find mutual benefit in the consulting relationship. A good solution for me was to provide (along with my contract) a simple letter of understanding about the services I can provide (often referred to as the Scope of Work). Anyone else do the same? Let's talk. How nice to discover WIC!
