The Nurse Consultant's Handbook

📖 The Scoop

What is a consultant? What type of person makes a successful consultant? How does one launch and manage one's own business as a consultant? This manual answers these questions and provides comprehensive guidelines and practical information on becoming a nurse consultant. The authors, both experienced consultants, outline the consultation process in detail and describe the business and financial savvy required. They give tips on marketing and pricing one's services; making presentations; networking; and managing your personal life in relation to your career. The book addresses independent entrepreneurs, as well as "intrapreneurs" who consult as an inside member of a larger organization. Results of a survey conducted by the authors of over 350 nurse consultants on the realities of their practice are integrated throughout. This is an excellent resource for graduate students, those considering a career change, or those who have already begun practice as a consultant.
