Women in Consulting (WIC) has been doing this survey for 11 years, and we have consistently found some practices (e.g., complex business structure, subcontracting, billing by the project or retainer) to be associated with higher achieving consultants.
Can we scientifically prove cause or effect? No. But we can look at what high-achieving consultants are doing, and the patterns have been consistent year over year. If nothing else, the survey helps all of us look at how were running our businesses and consider ways to improve.
If you want more details, WIC will have a webinar (
http://bit.ly/R4YJRB) detailing the survey results on Wednesday, November 7, 11 a.m PST. A free summary of the survey is available on the WIC website (

If you have any questions, let me know.
