The Richmond Group is a friendly community and network of independent consultants which welcomes people from across the world. We now meet virtually, so please join us at our online meetings. It supports consultant Members by providing professional development, practice development, and business development. The Richmond Group of Independent Consultants Ltd was first constituted in October 1982. It arose from the Sole Practitioners and Small Firms special interest group of the Institute of Management Consultancy (which is now the Institute of Consulting), which had been meeting regularly at a hotel in Richmond, Surrey. With its cadre of senior, experienced members who bring exceptional skills and experience to assignments, the Richmond Group rivals many larger consultancies. Indeed, it is from these large consultancies that many of our Members have gained their consultancy training and experience at senior level, while others have held important positions in industry and commerce. The objectives of the Richmond Group are three-fold: professional development, practice development and business development. The group meets every two months currently on Zoom. We invite visiting speakers to come and talk about issues of interest to our members and their clients. These meetings, small group breakouts, and our members' noticeboard, also provide valuable networking opportunities. In addition, we hold some shorter catch ups. We welcome guests and prospective members to our meetings. For more information please see our website or contact mike@barnato.com.
