Rude Consultants Declare War On Old Guard Consultancies
There’s a refreshing new voice in the world of consulting- a rude voice.
SOUTH SALEM, N.Y. (EWORLDWIRE) Mar 7, 2006
Rude Consultants assert that walking on eggshells to maintain political position within large companies (even as a consultant) is killing American business. For them, the truth, no matter how ugly or threatening is the only way to snuff out corporate dysfunction.
"Rude is the new polite,” quips Kyle Shannon, brainchild for the new venture. “Truth is dangerous. It can get people fired and can really put a damper on the annual holiday party.” Shannon and his team of professionals are on a mission to help companies and corporations get out of their own way.
Identifying problems and solutions within companies is relatively easy. Getting people within that company to actually make the change is why most consulting projects fail. “Our approach is to raise the urgency of the problem, by telling it like it is,” said Shannon. The folks at Rude contend that political infighting and positioning prevent good people with great skills and ideas from doing their jobs effectively.
This approach won’t work for every company. It wouldn’t likely have been embraced at Enron, for example. Consulting the 'rude way' requires that leadership within an organization is committed to making a change for the better. Rude Consultants will not work with a client unless they are convinced the company is truly engaged in the project and prepared to embrace change.
Corporate dysfunction is nothing new and is a natural by-product of success. Rude Consultants focus on individuals and teams and the processes and structures that they work within.
