Funny, but in all seriousness, it's easy to blame the client. As consultants it is our job to have the skills to navigate these issues and help guide our clients through the process.

I think anyone who works in consulting can relate and get a chuckle out of this, but we need to learn to work with it rather than become cynical, if we want to be successful at what we do.

Exactly. This table is a great metaphor. But it says more aboutthe responsibilities of this party which is more mature and knowledgeable. Like parents we're responsible for helping to articulate the needs,prevent misunderstandings and moderate the conflicts.not the toddlers.
