Like all types of consultants, growth consultants need excellent client service skills, such as presentation experience and timely communication. They need to be able to collaborate with employees at every level of the organization, from C-suite leadership to college student interns. They must be curious and flexible, able to work with a variety of clients in a wide range of projects. Furthermore, they must also be able to pair attention to detail with big picture strategic thinking.

They must be well-versed in many aspects of the business, including finance, sales, marketing, and HR. Some growth consultants may specialize in certain industries or certain types of projects, while others take a more wide-ranging approach.
