Company Overview
Gallup Consulting is different from most consulting firms. While other organizations provide services in traditional disciplines like cost reduction, building or re-engineering processes and systems, or mergers and acquisitions, we help companies drive true organic growth - revenue and profit increase from continuing operations. Advances in economics, psychology, and management sciences - along with our own research - have led our researchers to discover how organizations can grow by developing highly engaged customers and building powerful, engaged workforces of talented employees. Our consultants are trusted advisors to many of the world's leading companies. Our approach enables us to identify, develop, and implement solutions that align with our clients' visions and strategies.
Gallup does not typically sponsor foreign citizens for H-1B visas or permanent resident status for this position.
