Management consultancy is key sector in the economic change toward a service and knowledge economy. Originally published in 2006. this book explanis the mechanisms of the managemnt consulating market and the management of consulting firms from both economic and sociological perspectives. it also examines the strategies, marketing approaches, knowledge management, and human resource management techniques of consulting firms. After outlining the relationships between transaction cost economics, signaling theory, embeddedness theory, and sociological neoinstittutionalism, thomas Armbruster applies these theories to some cnetral questions. why does the consulting sector exist and grow? which institutions connect supply and demand? And which factors influence the relationship between clients an dconsultants? By applying both economic and sociological approaches, the book explains the general economic changes of the previous thirty years and sharpens the relationship between the academic disciplines.
