Engagement Manager Role
The Team Leader role is the most critical role to the success of a consulting engagement. The Team Leader is the team “quarterback” who guides the process from beginning to end. This includes clarifying the workplan with the client to form a more detailed approach during the kick-off meeting, coordinating the efforts and work product of the team of consultants, and keeping the project on track by scheduling meetings by the appropriate deadlines. The Team Leader will collaborate with the consulting team members.
