About the Book

THE WAY EXECUTIVES USE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES IS DYING. Are you ready to get the most out of what comes next? The longstanding business model of professional services is facing change unlike any other in its century-long history. Over the next 15 years, unrelenting advances in technology, data science, and corporate culture will fundamentally disrupt your “trusted advisors.” Exciting opportunities lie ahead for forward-thinking organizations, while disastrous threats await any buyer that’s unprepared to adopt a new service delivery model. MICROSLICES is a timely, eye-opening look at the changes that are already revolutionizing the professional services industry. It provides specific steps you must take as a buyer of those services to protect your organization from wasted consulting fees, outdated advice, and generic solutions. Consulting is dying. Your top adversaries will react to the future; will you?

About the Author :
JOHN M. DILLARD started his career at the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and has dedicated every working hour since to helping organizations, private and public, uncover secrets to stay ahead of future threats—whether those threats are competitive, operational, or security related. His 15-year career in management consulting has benefited everyone from large players such as Deloitte Consulting to smaller companies such as the one he cofounded, Big Sky Associates. His consulting experience runs the gamut: from commercial strategy to government security operations and large scale IT, from banking administrative flows to analyzing operations at the 9/11 recovery site at New York City’s Ground Zero. He has written for the President’s Daily Brief (PDB), served as a reserve intelligence officer in the US Navy, and has frequently taken out the trash for his own company. He’s tough to surprise but easy to keep energized. When John isn’t working on your toughest challenges, he is busy serving his community as a board member of the Entrepreneurs’ Organization, a member of Young Entrepreneur Council (YEC), and as a workout leader for F3, a fitness and leadership organization. He is a proud South Carolina native and lives with his family in Charlotte, North Carolina. For more information about Big Sky, visit: www.bigskyassociates.com
