ABSTRACT
Once the data collection phase of a consulting project is over and the client has decided to initiate some type of change, the part that many consultants consider the most rewarding-the implementation or execution stagecan begin. This is when real change occurs. In some cases, this change is evident only in a unit or department. In other cases, it is organization wide. Regardless, the implementation stage is when the talking ceases and concrete action or intervention starts in earnest.
