Episode 2: (L&D Consultancy) James O’Brien of LeapForward Thinking

Today on A Better HR Business I have a really enjoyable discussion with James O'Brien of LeapForward Thinking, a growing Learning & Development consultancy in the UK.

James and I talked about these things:

• What L&D consulting he does and who he helps.
• What was good and not so good about making the move from the corporate world to becoming an independent consultant.
• How he got his first few clients and how he finds new clients now.
• HR-related businesses that market themselves well.
• Whether or not to systematise your services and/or to partner with other HR companies.
• Change and challenges in the Human Resources industry as a whole.
• Interesting people and resources that can help HR businesses grow faster.
