How do you gracefully exit a consulting firm?

How do you gracefully exit a consulting firm when you have been a full time employee that has been consitently deployed for two years?

It is a relatively small but gowing market and all the players are known in most accounts. I wish to exit the firm and work for myself. However I don't want to alienate the accounts I have workled in and also be careful about the non-compete clause in the contract.

Go sit down with the owners/managers and explain why you need to leave, tell them that you very much appreciate the opportunity they have given you, and that you would like to keep the door open to them. You might be surprised at the reaction and help you will get. I have helped several former employees get started on their own and reemployed others as they and I found it beneficial.

I want to make a career in management consulting . I would like to get advice based on my short profile below?
