How will AI change the consultancy world, and are businesses doing enough to prepare for it?
Matthew Easton returns to Growing Consultancies for another conversation with Paul Micallef, and there’s plenty to unpack.
They explore how leadership and management are changing, why businesses can fall into the trap of over-promoting people, the growing issue of succession planning and why consultancy leaders need to get better at letting go.
The conversation also turns to AI and what it could mean for the future workforce. If technology takes over more technical and administrative work, what happens to graduate and entry-level roles? How do we develop the future leaders of the industry if the traditional route into consultancy begins to disappear?
Paul and Matt discuss why communication, relationship building, adaptability, critical thinking and leadership could become some of the most valuable skills in the workplace, and why being technically brilliant may no longer be enough.
They also look at the future structure of consultancy businesses, changing fee models and why firms that continue operating exactly as they do today could find themselves left behind.
A fascinating conversation about people, leadership, AI and what the next five years could mean for construction consultancy.
