This article addresses the need to deregulate management consultancy in Brazil, arguing that such a measure would boost innovation and competitiveness in the sector. Current regulations are considered outdated and restrictive, preventing significant progress and negatively impacting the sector's benefits in the Brazilian economy, given the limitations arising from the rules in force. The text highlights the historical evolution of consultancy in the country and the need for laws that keep pace with market changes. Current regulatory rigidity is seen as an obstacle to adapting to modern demands. The proposal for deregulation, in line with international practices and emphasizing self-regulation by professional associations, would make it easier for companies to adapt to market needs and client demands. This would allow the adoption of the best international practices, increasing the global competitiveness of Brazilian companies. Self-regulation, with ethical and quality standards, would promote best practices, recognized by clients and society. The inclusion of international standards would increase innovation and excellence in the sector. The article also emphasizes the importance of diversity of ideas and practices for the global competitiveness of Brazilian management consulting firms, suggesting that deregulation would allow for fairer competition between firms of different sizes and specialties. Deregulation aims to align the sector with global trends, benefiting clients and contributing to a more dynamic and competitive sector. It also highlights the need to review or repeal relevant legislation that currently negatively affects the consulting sector, proposing professional advocacy actions.

Consulting has evolved significantly over the years. This is in response to the changing operating environment and the emerging needs of organizations. To enrich client-consultant relationships, this article explores the changing philosophical positions around consulting and some of the applied techniques to make consulting an instrument of help in organizations. To enhance understanding of the varying consulting approaches, the article covers consulting approaches from Sigmund Freud, Karl Marx, Erich Fromm, and Patrick Trottier. The philosophical positions and insights from their work will support the emerging consultant in deepening transformational consulting. Through a review of the literature and reflecting on the author’s consulting practice, the article summarizes approaches to enhance transformational consulting. These approaches advance the humanistic paradigm and as such promotes the co-creation of solutions with the client system. The article positions the Use of Self and Action Research as fundamental to enriching consultants’ productive impact. In addition, the article highlights four strength-based models that enrich the design of client-centered solutions.
