Occupation claim: Management Consultant[edit]

The occupation claim "Management Consultant" was added by Koehl himself, and he uses two references to support the claim - one article in a Cambodian newspaper which doesn't use the term but refers to Koehl as an elephant consultant and his own web site which of course isn't a reliable source (and, but that's beside the point, doesn't even use the description "management consultant").

Koehl has justified the use of the term by an own analysis of the terms, claiming that he works as a consultant and he helps out with some aspects of management, thus he should be described as a management consultant. Others have claimed that there is a well-established meaning of the term management consultant, namely the type of services offered by companies such of McKinsey & Company, Boston Consulting Group and Bain & Company. Their consultans may be versatile and the activities they perform are fairly diverse, but helping zoos with their animal training isn't among them. - Tournesol (talk) 15:59, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have now removed the management consultant claim (and a few other very weakly sourced claims) as per above. - Tournesol (talk) 11:09, 28 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
