        Consultant Revenue Benchmarks

        Based on The Business Engineer framework: from T-shaped generalist to I-shaped AI-amplified expert.

        T-Shaped Generalist
        $180K
        Breadth commoditized by AI. Declining premium.
        I-Shaped Specialist
        $350K
        Deep domain expertise. Pattern recognition moat.
        I + AI Expert
        $750K
        Deep expertise amplified by AI. Expert at scale.
        I + AI + Products
        $1.5M+
        Productized expertise + consulting. Maximum leverage.

        The I-Shaped Formula

        Deep Expertise (One Domain) + AI Amplification (Breadth + Speed) = Expert at Scale. AI has commoditized breadth. What remains scarce is depth -- tacit knowledge, pattern recognition, judgment under ambiguity, and domain networks. The I-shaped consultant, augmented by AI, is the new career gold standard.
