Curiosity

See what others are missing

The very best consultants see things no one else sees because they are boundlessly curious. They love exploring. They are interested in people, how things work, and how they can be improved. They ask the most thoughtful questions, the ones no one else is asking. That is why the symbol is Pi, because Pi never ends, much like curiosity. There is always more to notice, more to learn, and another question worth asking.

Represented by Pi — π — the endless number
