Auckland - From Expert to Consultant: The Transition

As the year gets underway, you’re thinking:

Back to work.
Back to meetings.
Back to the same responsibilities.

And that familiar question reappears:

"How long do I actually want to do this for?"

You’re capable.
You’ve delivered results.
Led complex work.
Built a career people trust.

And somewhere along the way, you’ve outgrown the role-based version of your expertise.

You’re asking, "what else would this look like - outside the system?"

If you’ve been considering consulting, but don’t want to dilute your credibility, inflate your story, or become performative online, this event is for you.

Date: Thursday 22 January 2026
Time: 6:00–7:30pm
Location: 9 Carat Boardroom, SO Hotel, Auckland CBD
Cost: Free (limited seats)

This 90-minute live session is designed for experienced professionals who are exploring a deliberate transition into consulting and want to understand how.

Also suitable for coaches, practitioners, and service-based business owners who want to reset, refine, or reposition their work.

We’ll cover:

MESSAGE

How to establish authority outside corporate structures. We’ll clarify your positioning and consulting identity so it’s immediately clear what you do, who it’s for, and why your work matters to them.

MARKETING
How consultants create demand without loud self-promotion or mass networking. We’ll explore strategic visibility that builds trust beyond your existing contacts and allows the right clients to reach out directly.

MODEL
How to move from role-based expertise to a consulting model that stands on its own. We’ll look at how consultants structure their work and scope their value.

MONEY
How consulting makes money without discounting, over-delivering, or selling yourself short. We’ll look at pricing and value articulation, so your income reflects the depth of your experience, not the hours you put in.

If that resonates, you’re welcome to join us.

P.S. If someone you trust is also quietly ready for their next chapter, bring them too.
