Advice for Consultants - Part 2

Robert Weiner

document your work (for yourself, and the client): configurations/settings, inventories, assessments, options, recommendations, decisions, plans, budgets, meeting minutes. - get a good mobile system to take tools and critical documents with you: a USB drive, ipod, or MMC or SD card in your smartphone, etc. I also buy a lot of books.
