# Best Practice Report | Consulting Services

## What are the qualities that make someone a great consultant?

Our research on Consulting Services suggests that leaders in this space have the difficult task of balancing the needs of clients alongside the needs of those they lead internally. These organizations are engaged for their expertise and often at a juncture when a pressing problem needs to be solved. Therefore, consultants who have knowledge and an ability to listen and communicate effectively should be the most successful. MRG’s research into what behaviors predict leadership success within the consulting services industry aligns with these predictions.
