High-performing consultants often face a hidden risk: overreliance on a single client or narrow revenue stream. This creates fragility , where growth is limited not by skill, but by structural exposure. When leadership attention is consumed by maintaining key relationships instead of building systems, scalability stalls. The stress isn't about workload , it's about vulnerability masked as success.
