Outside consultants
It happens frequently that administrators recognize something to be wrong but are unable to put their finger on the source of the trouble.
In such instances, it may be worthwhile to either employ a professional management consulting firm to analyse the total operation or bring in one or two experts from another community for this purpose. Both methods have been tried in many places and have usually resulted in an improved program.
It is possible for the personnel of an institution to be blinded by partiality toward that which has been built up by their own labours, to be unable to look impractically at the enterprise because of sentimental feelings toward individuals in the organization, or to have too narrowed a view to recognize all the possibilities. It these things apply, an impartial look from the outside may be very beneficial.
