Reading List for Consultants

Other interesting reads would be:

• The pyramid principle by Barbara Minto

• The Boston Consulting Group on Strategy: Classic Concepts and New Perspectives by Carl W.Stern

• Consulting: A Practitioner's Perspective by Mohan Kancharla

Good luck.

I also like to use Linkedin, I browse there and for example Im following "Management Consulting" (https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/feed/channel/management_consulting), sometimes they share interesting articles. 

The McKinsey Way by Ethan M. Rasiel

In my opinion, the best book that truly describes management consulting as a business and profession would be:

"Management Consulting: A Guide to the Profession" by the International Labour Office and edited by Milan Kubr.

Bear in mind, however, that the book is immense (roughly 900 pages) but extremely thorough.
