1. Introspect: Being a consultant is not an easy game:
There are a lot of parameters one should follow. It is important that a consultant must have some following key ideas in his mind. Since the client is way too trustworthy on the consultant, it becomes imperative that as a consultant you must not breach that trust. A sound knowledge about The matrix which is being proposed must be known to the consultant intrinsically. Detailed roadmap of the project in proposition must be known to the consultant. As an educationist, consultant must be able to educate his client for the project.

4. Visionary:
It is one of the most important aspects of a successful consultant. It is a consultant vision that would be seen and followed once the project goes live. As a demanding and great visionary, he or she must always be aware of the trends which are coming and feasible.
