What is scope and when do you talk about it with your client?

How to make it clear that you’re a consultant, not an order taker.

Scoping with (and without) value pricing.

The relationship between mastery, value and scoping.

Shifting from doing full implementation to strategy and project oversight (hint: it starts in the scoping meeting).
