The final interview at the conclusion of a consulting engagement is an opportunity to review your performance, and sow seeds for a future engagement. This video shares that conversation and gives you the opportunity to see how closing your current engagement remains the focus, while discussing other opportunities to deliver value to your client.

- Well, it has been quite the journey,…and I'm not sure we could have done this without you.…It is so great to see the finance teams…on a single page, literally, for a change, and the…new single finance system is just humming right along.…- That is fantastic to hear, and thank you.…It's your support and concern and…attention to this was also important.…I couldn't have done it without you.…By the way, I heard something about tax payments…for overseas employees.…
