The Consulting Illusion Is Cracking

For decades, consulting sold clarity, credibility, and cover, not accountability.I’ve been in the rooms. I’ve seen the decks, the jargon, the millions spent packaging the obvious as strategy.AI didn’t kill consulting.It exposed what was never defensible to begin with.This episode is about why the old model worked for so long, why it’s collapsing now, and what actually matters in a world where clarity is no longer scarce.If your value depended on opacity, this moment is uncomfortable.If your value depends on judgment, context, and accountability, you’ll be fine.This isn’t outrage.It’s recognition.
