BUSINESS CONSULTING GROUP

Today’s Economic Reality:

Inflation is rising and with it the cost of materials and labor.  A potential economic slowdown is looming. Competition is increasing. Employees are rethinking their relationships with their employers: do I want to work in an office and commute?  Does all the work done by your employees relate specifically to your line of business or can the non-strategic work be outsourced?  As you look to reduce hiring due to the potential slowdown, are there still projects to get completed?
