Edward G. Verlander (ALL, Ed.D. Alum): Congratulations to Edward Verlander, who recently published The Practice of Professional Consulting, with J. Wiley & Sons.  In the words of W. Warner Burke: "In 1985 I started and led a consulting business for 15 years.  I learned a lot but could have saved time, money and avoided mistakes by having this unusually useful book by Verlander.  His articulation and clarity regarding what to do when and how to do it is invaluable."

The Practice of Professional Consulting: Watch Edward Verlander discuss his new book.  The Practice of Professional Consulting provides the most comprehensive introduction to the field of consulting, including a complete system of guidelines, and all the tools, templates, techniques, case studies, competencies, and assessments to become a professional consultant.
