About
Commercial judgement shaped from the inside.
Anna Szabo founded Future Perspective Consulting to help professional services leaders see what their clients see - and act on it with commercial discipline.
Anna has spent more than 30 years helping professional services firms strengthen client relationships and drive sustainable commercial growth, in executive leadership roles across top tier law firms and the Big 4.
She has worked with Boards, CEOs, Managing Partners and Executive Leadership Teams to shape client strategy, lead client programs and translate client insight into commercial outcomes.
Her methodology combines independent client interviews, commercial analysis and practical implementation, built on a simple view: firms that outperform act on what they hear.
Anna founded Future Perspective Consulting on this philosophy, helping firms turn the voice of the client into stronger relationships, stronger reputations and sustainable, profitable growth.
How she works
Independent interviews
Client listening that surfaces candid feedback leaders rarely hear directly.
Commercial analysis
Insight translated into market position, growth and competitive advantage.
Practical implementation
Follow-through so the voice of the client becomes action, not a report.
