We see these two terms- ?business consulting? and ?management consulting? being used interchangeably, more often than not. But is it correct to do so? Not so much! Before diving into the differences between business consulting and management consulting, let?s understand the common grounds and why might one often mistake them as one and the same thing. Whenever a company or a business requires expertise in a particular specific domain and uses this expertise for a short-term to achieve certain fixed goals, they reach out to what we call the consultants. Consultants are the ones with vast and in-depth knowledge in their area of business and will often know the right path to get their client companies out of the metaphorical stale-mate situations.
