I came across what looks less corporate and certainly unfiltered. Not all posts have to do with management consulting, but it’s worth looking at. Happy hunting.

Many insultants don’t blog because they also don’t have original thought!

Think of the very large insultancies who back up the school bus to large enterprises and hand their consultants scripts to execute. Not saying you fit into this camp but many of your peers in the industry do…

Funny – Going to your blog and seeing my dear colleagues have beaten me to it in leaving a reaction. Like the story, and agree on the points mentioned. I’m glad that I started the blog in English, it’s nice to reach an international audience. I hope we can choose for the lay-out to be in English as well soon, so it’s easier to understand that you can read further and leave a reaction on our blogs as well. (things that are currently mentioned in Dutch).

Good luck on exploring the world of blogging – we’re just starting here as well.

Hi Bartlomiej,

First of all, thanks for mentioning my blog! I’m honoured! :D
Being a consultant does mean that we don’t have a lot of free time to write blogs, but I’m trying to keep it up during the weekends or evenings. We’ll see how that goes… **fingers crossed**

Keep in touch!

Hi Stephan,

Thanks for dropping by!

Indeed the blogs that I was able to read (in English:) did not seem formalized at all and therefore were fun. I subscribed so I will stay in touch how you are doing.

I added the paragraph about blogpodium later and it landed in the wrong neighborhood.

Will be more careful next time:)

Best Regards,

/B.

Hi Bartłomiej, I like your post and can relate to many things you are saying.

In response to the notion that corporate blogs are too much filtered, I guarantee you that the Accenture Netherlands BlogPodium blogs are not at all formal. True, we do know our bloggers and provide the means for them to express themselves online. You can consider it a branded TypedPad as a service to our employees.

The posts are not screened or changed in any way.
I personally guarantee that since I set up the BlogPodium and to date am the administrator.

Cheers,

- Stephan
