Client competence involves knowing how to choose consultants, how to work with them, what to expect and how to evaluate the results of professionals’ work. In this context, standards and professional certifications for consultants can provide proper purchasing processes for professional consultancy services and an opportunity to accelerate performance in the market and the economy as a whole. ICMCI – The International Council of Management Consulting Institutes – has invited some of the leading representatives of international public institutions as well as the private sector who are playing a key role in these developments, to debate these topics. Dr. Ilse Ennsfellner, Chairperson of the Project Committee to establish the European Standard EN 16114 Management Consultancy Services presented the new launched standard and the value for consultants, clients, buying institutions and other users.
