Yes, and being served by over 50 titles. To make a presence your material

Consider that there may be too many consultants already.
But a large and important unmet need is instilling the "consulting"
behavior into cohorts. An example would be co-facilitating a project. To
my knowledge there is no material on co-management of projects even though
we all know that when uncertainty exceeds zero two heads are better than
one. Suggest you stand in this problems space and re-look at the subject
matter of your materials. There may be a pony under there.
