Seven to Watch
When it comes to Consulting's Seven Small Jewels award, there's nothing at all small about the number of nominations we receive for just seven winning spots. This year, for every winner more than 25 firms didn't make the cut. So, it would certainly stand to reason that many, many good firms were left on the outside looking in. Several of these firms stood out in the eyes of our editorial selection committee. For one reason or another, these seven didn't quite make the final cut this year, but they were considered, and fell just short, of being named one of the Seven Small Jewels for 2015. Rather, they made our Seven to Watch list for 2015 so we, and you, can keep an eye on them this year and in the future. Who knows? They may find themselves as one of next year's Seven Small Jewels. Stay Tuned.
