Concerns: The concerns of outside consultants, be they HR, organizational, marketing, or legal, are similar to those of Boards of Directors. Consultants may be concerned with IT direction and strategy; that IT operates in a vacuum and does not support the strategic aims of the parts of the business with which they are most concerned. Compliance issues and risks arising from poorly conceived systems and reporting are currently a major concern of consultants in the HR and legal arenas.
