To give a bit of defense to consultants, there are a lot of parallels between hiring a consultant for a business and a therapist for yourself. Both are expensive in their own ways. And both focus on helping you help yourself with your own resources. I wouldn't think of you as an idiot for admitting you needed help to look at your own actions or choices. But I think the difference is that you can't just fix yourself by swapping out pieces of your brain, but a business can! Why would you keep around executives or teams that need constant, regular intervention?
