Guiding You to the Right Consulting Partnership
Guiding You to the Right Consulting Partnership
ConsultSelect was founded in 2008 by Dr. Elizabeth Morgan and Michael Chen, both former management consultants who recognized a critical gap in the market: businesses often struggled to identify and select the right consultants for their specific needs, leading to misaligned expectations, wasted resources, and disappointing outcomes.
What began as a small advisory service in Boston has grown into a comprehensive resource center that has helped over 5,000 organizations across diverse industries make better consulting decisions. Our initial focus on selection criteria expanded to include methodologies, training programs, and a vibrant community platform where business leaders share experiences and insights.
In 2015, we launched our proprietary Consultant Match Framework, which has been adopted by Fortune 500 companies and startups alike. By 2018, we expanded our services globally, opening offices in London, Singapore, and Sydney to meet growing international demand.
Today, ConsultSelect stands as the leading authority on consultant selection and relationship management, committed to transforming how organizations engage with consulting services to achieve exceptional results and maximize return on investment.
Our mission is to empower organizations to make informed, strategic decisions when selecting and working with consultants, enabling more successful partnerships and better business outcomes.
We maintain unwavering commitment to providing unbiased, evidence-based guidance, free from favoritism or commercial influence. Our recommendations are solely focused on what's best for your organization's specific situation.
We continuously deepen our knowledge of the consulting landscape, industry-specific challenges, and organizational dynamics to provide guidance that reflects current best practices and emerging trends.
We deliver actionable insights and practical frameworks that organizations can implement immediately, avoiding theoretical approaches that don't translate to real-world results.
We foster a collaborative ecosystem where business leaders can learn from each other's experiences, share knowledge, and collectively elevate the standard of consulting partnerships across industries.

ConsultSelect transformed our approach to hiring consultants. Their framework helped us clearly define our needs and evaluate potential partners beyond just their proposals. As a result, our last three consulting engagements have delivered exceptional results on time and within budget.
After a series of disappointing consulting experiences, we implemented ConsultSelect's evaluation criteria and it made all the difference. We now have a systematic approach to selecting partners who truly understand our industry challenges and organizational culture.
As a startup, we couldn't afford to make mistakes with our limited consulting budget. ConsultSelect's guidance helped us identify the right expertise for our growth stage and negotiate terms that protected our interests while building a collaborative relationship.
