Being a self-employed Organization Development consultant is wonderful work and I control my schedule, my deadlines and developed excellent relationships with my clients. It is not stable with regard to income therefore the pay fluctuates from year to year.

Advice for prospective applicants:

Be prepared to live with the unknown. Make sure you develop a good network. Be prepared to make cold calls, if needed. Realize you must be self-initiating, excellent in your work and on meeting deadlines, comfortable with sales as well as your work.
