The simplest form of the definition of consultancy can be made as “transferring the knowledge and skills of individuals or institutions specialized in a field to the institution they serve within a certain time frame”. One of the most critical points here is that the person called “consultant” is an experienced and expert person in the relevant field. The fact that the knowledge and experience of the consultant is more innovative and different than that of the serviced firm and that it will add something new to the firm is a must in the consultancy sector. However, a consultant should adhere to the principle of impartiality and look out for the interests of the organization to which he provides services.
