Consulting process – Entry level
To get to know more about a potential client profile such as education, working experience, interests, network or circle of influence, ambitious and so, perhaps, we can research into LinkedIn:
Apparently, it is a website used for more than 35 million of professional to exchange experiences and new ideas.
Consulting process – Diagnosis level

However, the price for an industry report tends to be high.
Consulting process – Implementation level
Talking last Friday night with Joseph Lynn (current student of Management Consulting specialisation), he suggested me to look at the following website:
It is just an open management system (free software). I thought it could be particularly useful for those small enterprises lacking financial resources. I believed it could be considered as one of those tool or resource used by managers in the consultancy field.
