Internal and external consultants use many of the same techniques and tools, do similar work, but face very different challenges. Internal consultants work in a unique position. Their job role is to consult to the organization for which they work. It is not easy to be, at the same time, a part of an organization and function as detached and independent. Each position on the consulting continuum places different pressures on the internal than the external, making them either more or less a part of the organization.

Managing this position becomes paramount to success for the internal.

The pros (and a few cons) of hiring independent business auditors
Professional auditors take confidentiality seriously, and help to ensure that proper agreements are in place both internally and externally as part of the audit process. While it may take a little time for the external auditor to get up to speed on your company, it is that very process, as the objective external auditor learns the workings of your business, that enables the auditor to see opportunities, risks, and solutions that may not be as easily viewed by people closer to your company.
