    Hi all,

    Thanks for the replies, some good advice there.

    At the moment we are fully associate model. The 10 consultants we have are those I have either worked with previously, or interviewed/screened this year and put a framework agreement in place with to provide a set of services at an agreed rate.

    The plan is when demand gets to a steady state for a long enough period of time, I will consider hiring on a perm basis. I am not there yet however.

    I will get the book suggested, and regarding a mentor, there are a couple I can think of so I will give them a call and offer dinner.

    An MBA I am sure would provide a solid foundation. It is a large investment in time and money. I think I would need to speak to a few people who have taken this, to really appreciate the value. I remain open minded, however I am aware I have never been particularly academic.

    @XLM: I might PM you in due course, cheers.

    Regards

    James.
