Another segment of the consulting industry is that of university professors who consult to complement their full-time positions in teaching.These professors typically hold advanced degrees and are specialists in a particular field of research.This segment of the consulting population is self-regulating via the Academy of Management,Division of Managerial Consultation,which provides a code of ethics for its 800 members.The fastest growing segment of this market is systems analysis and administrative services managers; the areas seeing the least amount of growth by the year 2005 will be typists,word processors,secretaries,and bookkeeping/accounting clerks.
RESEARCH AND TECHNOLOGY
The application of technology is a significant tool of the consulting industry.Many of the largest firms in the industry generate their revenue by applying technology solutions to business problems.An example of this is redesigning a distribution operation and inventory tracking system to automate the entire process with robotics,computers,scanners,and advanced software to control the system.Still other firms specialize in training corporate personnel to use technology.
