Organizing a Scientific Consulting Group

  • Chapter
The Scientist as Consultant

Abstract

Organizing a scientific consultancy can be a daunting kind of activity for a scientist, immersing him into areas undreamed of in graduate school—especially business-oriented matters for which a technical education provides zero preparation. Fortunately, good advice about how to start is available, from a library bookshelf of how-to books like this one, from short-term workshops at a nearby Holiday Inn, or from colleagues already involved in a consulting business.
