Common sense and positive habits are key and the foundation to
become successful consultants. In this book, Jose describes examples
that do not only make us think about what we somehow get involved on a day to day basis, but also generates the awareness of all those positive or negative behaviors in ourselves that sometimes we don’t
notice. The most substantial part is that Jose also shares in this book
the concepts and guidance to recognize our room for improvement
and start working on them.

As I was reading through this
informative guide, full of lessons learned over the span of Jose's 30-year career, I kept highlighting essential statements and sections that sparked “Aha!” and “Hmm!” moments. The number of bookmarks I made suggests that every chapter offers a valuable lesson that is worth spending the time to read it, understand it, and embrace it. The readers can use this book as a checklist to evaluate their skills and learn how to become better consultants.

Mr. Herrera has collated in a book what every consultant, or future consultant, needs to know, practice, exercise and live by, no matter what industry an individual may operate in. This book provides
easy-to-read guides and examples, and more importantly, makes you
want you to read the next chapter to understand the consulting
lifecycle and thought-process completely.

Jose’s personal story
is genuinely moving, and the simple way with which he describes
the consulting discipline makes the material not only easy to digest
but easy to relate. It is evident that he has extensive experience and
is passionate about the subject and teaching it to others. He has
extensively outlined all the needed traits and necessary steps a person should take to be successful in the field, regardless of industry, and he has provided real-life examples with real people. In short, this book is inspirational, applicable, and relatable and I look forward to it getting published so I can recommend it to others.

This book can be a valuable resource for consultants at every stage in
their career. Jose Herrera advises “Know ourselves, our background,
our capabilities, education, skills, knowledge, and experience. We
must understand that all of those qualities are unique in the world
and that there is nobody else out there with the same background,
experience or capabilities.” The well-organized and cohesive writing
lends to this being a perfect “go-to resource” for all consultants. I
value the advice and mentorship of Jose, and while Jose doesn’t fit in
my purse, this book does.

Whether you’ve been in consulting for a long time or are just starting,
you will find the guidelines described in this book very useful in
your day-to-day activities. Mr. Herrera’s experience is something
that anyone in any industry could benefit from. I discovered areas
of improvement in my negotiation skills and how to develop new
capabilities. If you aim to improve your consulting services, this
book is a must-read.

Reading The Art of Consulting actually returned me to some past
stories of mine, but this time instead of some random occurrence of an event, I saw the clear causality of such event. The book is easy to read and can be really valuable for professionals that want to ramp up
their consulting skills. It was a pleasure and honor to be part of the
reviewers of Mr. Herrera’s book.

I had a great experience reading this book. Consulting is a hard
topic to write about due to the complexity of the matter, while this
book has successfully accomplished this endeavor. The content is well structured and provides sufficient depth to both experienced consultants and starting professionals. It is easy to relate to the book
topics owing to the plethora of situational and practical examples.
I would recommend this book to any consultant regardless of the
proficiency levels or industry as it provides an insight into dealing
with potential challenges in the consultancy world.
