Birdwell Consulting Services, Inc. was born in the early 1990s out of a consultant's quandary whether to honestly answer a clients question or to maximize revenue for the firm he worked for. The 2 goals did not seem to be opposing ideas or mutually exclusive so the consultant became independent and formed Birdwell Consulting Services, Inc. The result is a firm that provides services to clients all over the United States in partnership with other consulting firms for the mutual benefit of the client firms, the individual consultants, and their firms. If everyone involved does not benefit from the relationship they will not stay in the relationship and the relationship and members of the relationship will suffer.
