Quotes by Alan Cay Culler (?)

“I wrote Traveling the Consulting Road, based upon what I wish I knew at each stage of a thirty-seven year consulting career. I think this book will bring smiles to pros, teach a few techniques to journeymen, but mostly help new consultants, make fewer mistakes than I did when I was a newbie.”
― Alan Cay Culler, Traveling the Consulting Road: Career Wisdom for new consultants, candidates, and their mentors
