We provide "best practices" research, decision support tools and executive
education focusing on corporate strategy, operations and general management
issues. Best practices research supports senior executive decision making by
identifying and analyzing specific management initiatives, processes and
strategies that have been determined to produce the best results in solving
common business problems or challenges. We are a Delaware corporation formed in
October 1997. We maintain our executive offices in Washington, D.C., at 2000
Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Suite 6000, Washington, D.C. 20006.
Our membership-based model, in which all customers (or "members") participate
in our research and analysis, is central to our business strategy. This model
gives us access to the best business practices of our members and enables us to
provide comprehensive analysis on current business issues, assessing the
collective experiences and knowledge of our members on leading-edge topics. ... More ... |
