Typically, a client team consists of a core group of consultants and members from the client side.
The team as a whole is responsible for planning and conducting the engagement, maintaining relationships with the client, participating in every phase of the engagement, ensuring the ultimate quality of the work and the impact delivered to the client.
Team members exchange ideas,
challenge one another's thinking and approach, and test the team's conclusions
and recommendations in an open and honest atmosphere. One of the team's first
and most important decisions governs how they will work together. At the
beginning of the engagement, they discuss individual schedules, needs and work
styles and jointly lay the ground rules for working together.
