The Consulting Experience
Projects handled by Colin-Baxter.com can often be divided into Task and Process consulting. In the former, we undertake a single and usually well-defined task, using specific skill-sets that are appropriate to our specialist areas. Process consulting, on the other hand, simply means one or more discussions with the Client that may lead to the submission of a formal proposal. This division is a simplification, but it is also one that can be useful in helping to determine performance benchmarks and facilitating a high-value consulting experience for the Client.
Who we are
Colin-Baxter.com is operated by Dr Colin Baxter, who also undertakes
academic research, and has contributed to leading academic journals in the areas in quantum optics, atomic physics and fundamental problems.
