Somewhat like a 'business consultant' L3 flavour? I like the idea,
Mark. Well, since we seem to broaden the discussion, I want to
bring in a related topic: non-technical skillsets. 

As I recall an LPIC-3 alumnis originally was supposed to be able to 
advice management too. Well, with the possible exception of very small 
businesses, this strongly suggests that such an alumnis should also 
have non-technical skills. Perhaps we need to create a program that 
certifies more than just technical skills. 

I have been working on such a program within my company. Our consultants 
are also encouraged to develop and maintain knowledge about business 
processes, project management and documentation and presentation 
techniques. They have to certify these skills too, for example all of 
our LPIC certified consultants are also ITIL Foundation certified. 
Additionally, I have been using instruments like the EQ-i to enable 
people to learn more about their psychological profiles, their weaknesses 
and strengths.

However, it may be well beyond the scope of what the LPI should do, after 
all, the aforementioned skills are not 'linux specific'.  They are 
specific for all good business consultants.
