Leadership Series: Working as a Consultant

While you may not have planned on becoming a consultant when you first joined the social work workforce, consulting can provide social workers with a host of opportunities throughout their careers. As a consultant, you offer your skills, knowledge and expertise to organizations. These opportunities can be found in a wide range of work environments including public and private nonprofits or the research, policy, academia or clinical arenas. Your role as a consultant can involve providing recommendations, solutions, or expertise on specific projects for organizations. All social workers, including those considering a shift in career focus, seasoned professionals or even new NASW graduates may want to consider consulting opportunities.
