The Consultant’s Calling: Bringing who you are to what you do, Geoffrey E. Bellman, Jossey-Bass, 1990.
This is a laid-back book, about meaning, not a how-to on the mechanics of business. Bellman uses an approach that encourages consultants to understand themselves deeply, both the good and the bad. A key challenge is to balance life and work. You can give the gift of full presence in the moment, and you can use your skills to help a group move from the present they have to the future they want.
