Strategic advice and insight from a consultant to the consultants: This great business read gets into how to make any firm more successful and profitable.
In business, expert advice is always available: management consultants, attorneys, accountants and the like all have wisdom to offer. But where do the experts go when their own firms need help adapting to change, nurturing talent, and protecting profit margins?
Many go to David C. Kuhlman, an advisor to leading professional firms and consultant to the consultants, who has spent four decades helping firms become the most effective versions of themselves.
In this penetrating book — suffused with strategic insight and personal reflection – Kuhlman writes with authority and affection about a world most people in the business world interact with but know little about. It turns out those leading and working for firms that offer sage advice to others face the same management challenges as other businesses.
The uniqueness of “Firm Believer” is in Kuhlman’s advice, which is both specific to leaders of highly accomplished professional firms and valuable to anyone striving for success at any organization. Despite the best of intentions and strategies, all businesses make mistakes and miss opportunities, Kuhlman notes. They chase the wrong kind of growth. They fail at change management. They struggle to cultivate the next generation of leaders. Kuhlman has seen all these scenarios. He has perspectives and lessons to share based on decades helping best-of-the-best professional services firms look inward and rethink their own paths to success.
Chapters in “Firm Believer” address:
- Good growth vs. bad growth
- Retaining talent in a competitive world
- How to find funding to invest in a firm’s future
- Keys to implementing successful strategies
- Managing change and understanding resistance
- The contradictory characteristics of leadership
This book is for leaders of professional services firms and those who aspire to leadership positions. It is also a valuable text for anyone pursuing a career in any organization, because the secrets to success at a global consulting firm, a law firm or accounting are useful to everyone.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to HPB-Emerald, Carrollton, Texas, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
