I am a senior academic (not quite professor) working in international development. I would like to leave the sector — I am exhausted by it — and move into management consultancy. I worked in NGOs before academia but don’t wish to return to this. I have project management and evaluation expertise, as well as skills in research and analysis rooted in anthropology. How do I set myself up to make the shift? Anonymous
