Current Situation Analysis (10-15 minutes): The consultant gathers information about the client's business, including its current challenges, goals, and performance metrics. This may involve a discussion of the client's industry, market position, and competitive landscape.
Discussion of Issues and Opportunities (20-25 minutes): The consultant and client delve into specific issues the business is facing, such as operational efficiency, marketing strategies, financial performance, or growth potential. They may also explore opportunities for improvement and innovation.
 
Recommendations and Action Plan (15-20 minutes): Based on the discussion, the consultant provides tailored recommendations and strategies for addressing the identified issues. This may include actionable steps, resources, and timelines for implementation.
 
Last but not least Q&A and Next Steps (5-10 minutes): The session concludes with a question-and-answer segment, allowing the client to seek clarification or further insights. The consultant may also discuss follow-up actions, future meetings, or additional support services.
