Critical Success Factors for Consulting and Collaborating is a one-day workshop designed for students, consultants and managers in social sciences, physical sciences, mathematics, business and government.  The conference shares the experience and perspective of expert consultants and client executives with those who aspire to or already work in the consulting profession.  Networking breaks, lunch seating and the closing reception provide opportunities for increased interaction between attendees and speakers.

 

The theme of the 4th Annual Consulting and Collaborating Workshop is case studies.  These case studies emphasize the collaborative nature of the relationship between professional and client.  Presenters will share their experiences and perspectives with working on actual case studies.  The following is a list of presenters for the workshop:
