Our 600 consultants across 64 offices and 36 countries are former industry and functional leaders who collaborate seamlessly to deliver the full power of the Firm to every client, every time.

Last month, we were proud to sponsor the GSA Women's Leadership Initiative’s Board-Ready Women’s Event, in partnership with Morgan Stanley. Through a series of eye-opening panels and discussions, the event brought together major leaders across the STEM industries to advocate for female visibility and leadership, representing the boards of FactSet, Qualcomm, Intel Corporation, Docusign, Lumentum, and more. We can’t wait to see how these important conversations turn into actionable change in board rooms and meetings going forward.
