After 2014's successful start to a new award—and brand—around the up-and-comers in consulting, we're back for Round 2. With a year under our belt and a little wind in our sails, the 2015 Rising Stars of the Profession picks right up where last year's class left off, and then some.
Here's what we've learned: The consulting profession is stocked with young talent. One would need only to look at our special 20-page Rising Stars of the Profession section to be convinced. Read about their accomplishments: They've launched firms; they've sold firms; they've merged their own firms with much larger firms. They've saved clients hundreds of millions of dollars; they've generated more in revenue for their own firms; they've opened new offices, they've opened new geographies.
And true to this generation, they're philanthropic; they believe their work should lead to more than a paycheck. Basically, they want to change the world—or at least leave it in much better shape than how they found it. They are simply redefining the consulting profession.
