All to often companies hire outside consultants to suggest ways for the company to operate more efficiently. If companies were to spend more time listening to their employees, such consultants would be unnecessary.

Over the past few decades, Consultants and Practitioners have received a remarkable popularity in digital business. Divising solutions to IT problems, managing information flow , organising management hierarchy and eventually raising the industry's profits are the primary functions of consultants.

Companies hire these outside consultants primarily to improve their financial stability. These consultants have a very practical and strategic appraoch as they are well aware of the market conditions and the relative competitiors. They easily utilize this information and thereby make a plan that is fool proof. They also make sure to either completely eliminate the weakness of the company they are hired by or atleast overshadow those weaknesses by laying more emphasis on their strengths. Apart from this, these consultants are usually post graduates from renonwed educational institutes wherein they have studied the industry problems in details and also their generic solutions.Additionally these consultants guarantee that the profits of the company shall increase along with its stake rising higher. They also ensure that all processes within the organization are functioning efficiently. The consultants also sign an agreement wherein they assure not to leak any private and confidential information of the company to the outside world.

However an analytical person would agree that experienced employee of a company could be its best advisors. Since such employees have an end to end knowledge of the various issues and complexities as well as the shortcomings, their past experience of resolving them earlier without consultants surely gives a new direction to problem analysis. Also the company employees can better predict the impact of a particular decision in both the positive as well as the negative directions. Company employees are better aware of the skills and strengths of their peers and sub ordinates. This helps them to allocate tasks to the right person which the consultants may not be aware of since they are new to the organization. Listening to company employees would also save the huge amount of fees paid to Consultants, This money can then be used in order to enhance some other aspects of the company. Also the lack of educational background can be compensated by providing some trainings to the employees that can get them on par with these consultants.

Therefore hiring a consultant would be sane for a company that is in a very bad condition and needs to revive immediately. However for a company that is stable but want to enhance its efficiency, it would make more sense if it listens to its employees.
