| 721 | Leadership in Professional Consulting Professional consulting requires a multi-dimensional approach to leadership. Within the role, consultants need to be adept, confident and have credibility. Scenarios for consulting will typically be complex and involve building relationships with other senior leaders. Consultants may lead internal and/or external teams and work at board level.

Innovation defined simply as ‘doing something new or different’, is a powerful catalyst for change. It can revolutionise an organisation’s operational activities, create dynamic new opportunities, and contribute to the achievement of strategic goals. Change occurs in many forms and professional consultants must be able to lead changes, which may be radical, incremental or evolutionary. | 90 |
| 724 | Personal and Professional Development for Professional Consultants In a globalised, high-tech, fast paced and unpredictable world, professional consultants must prioritise personal and professional development. This will enable them to keep pace with developments in strategic and operational practice and equip them to respond effectively to organisational and societal change. | 70 |
