When should you bring in an external expert, and when are you just paying for a logo? In this episode of So What...? , Chris Argent, Mike Rose and Joel Johansen debate the role of consultants, contractors and independent advisors in modern business. They explore why experience matters, where big consultancies fall short, and why trusted independent experts can often deliver more value than larger firms. Along the way, they discuss relationships, culture and what organisations should really be paying for when they bring in outside support.
