Cornerstone Research, a leading provider of economic and financial consulting and expert testimony, has been named to Forbes Magazine’s list of America’s Best Management Consulting Firms for the 11th consecutive year. Cornerstone Research has been included in the rankings every year since the survey’s inception.
The firm is recognized as one of the 183 firms nationwide recommended for its performance across seven sectors and functional areas: Artificial Intelligence; Consumer Goods & Retail; Data Analytics & Big Data; Finance & Risk Management; Health Care & Life Sciences; IT, Technology, & Telecommunications; and Sales & CRM.
Forbes partnered with Statista, a market research company, to create the list. Together they conducted two surveys. The first was of more than 1,200 clients who had worked with a management consulting firm over the past four years, and the second was a peer-to-peer survey of over 1,150 partners and executives at consulting firms.
Respondents from both groups were asked to recommend consultancies across 33 possible categories consisting of 16 client industries and 17 functional areas.
