The reality of a healthcare consulting career can be vastly different from how people often imagine it. Although an executive might transition to a consulting role, management experience and knowledge do not guarantee success.

Now he provides practical guidance to help healthcare executives make an informed career decision about becoming a professional consultant, with eyes wide open to both the risks and rewards.
