NOVEMBER 20164Chandra Gupta Maurya had Chanakya and Akbar had Birbal. What do you have? You have the modern day Chanakyas and Birbals called consultants who not just guide you through tough times but also hold your hand to sail across the fierce sea. Having consultants always empower clients with the best fit solutions to their predica-ments. And the India story is eminently growing since the his-tory began in 1990s, as Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry predicts the number to grow to Rs.27,000 crore by 2020. The well-informed guidance for lesser mortals is a precious commodity these days. Business people and corporates globally depend on the wise counsel of these expert consultants for their survival and growth and don't mind paying extra bucks per hour for their deep insights that these experienced, knowledgeable and innovative professionals bring to the table. But many of the old monks still succeed in providing management and strategy advice. However, the new entrants are smarter enough to take this service to the next level. But the smart groups, independent consultants and startup companies today face a much bigger challenge, as their clients are more tough and demanding who insist on proof of their efficiency in their operations and bottom lines. Hence these companies not just provide clear roadmaps for general business, IT, accounting, marketing and a host of other functions, but also stay on and implement their own recommendations to proof their mettle. With the success that these startup consultants are garnering world over, these consultants are now all set to become the stakeholders in the businesses they are confident they have improved. Going the equity way will further empower these consultants to make better business decisions and take the clients' company to newer heights.
