Top Management Consultancy: Forbes awards STAUFEN with international seal of approval for the third year running
For the third time in a row, the renowned business magazine Forbes named the Staufen one of the “World’s Best Management Consulting Firms”. The award confirms the outstanding expertise of the management consultancy, which serves both mid-sized companies and international corporations for sustainable growth and performance. Staufen’s global presence, hands-on approach, and focus on operational excellence make it a strong partner to quickly solve immediate challenges and prepare companies for the future.
“While we certainly use the latest digital technologies, we don’t hide behind laptops and dashboards. We work shoulder-to-shoulder inside of our customer’s businesses, where change needs to be lived and implemented, in their offices and factories. Our primary goal is to optimize the entire value chain end-to-end and to better position the entire chain to better serve its end-customers. This approach is becoming increasingly important against the backdrop of employee instability, growing economic concern, disruptive technologies and global multi-crises. The renewed award from Forbes affirms our successful and sustainable approach. At the same time, this award is more incentive to continue doing what we do best: obsess over our customers’ success.” says Wilhelm Goschy, CEO of Staufen AG.

The annual Forbes list awards outstanding consulting firms worldwide as part of an independent and comprehensive evaluation. Nick Phillips, head of Staufen’s rapidly growing US branch says: “Staufen’s hands-on implementation approach, and obsession with customer value, has certainly translated well to the US market. We are growing quickly because of our awesome customers and high caliber, practically minded, employees. The support provided from Staufen AG’s internationally recognized expertise in operational excellence has been fantastic. This award from Forbes is an important US based voice naming the top consulting firms within the USA.”

Operational excellence ensures a significant increase in performance
In addition to the “World’s Best Management Consulting Firms 2024” seal of approval, Staufen was named “Best Management Consultant” (brand eins*/Statista) for the eleventh time in a row this year and was named Germany’s best lean management consultancy in the “Hidden Champions 2022/23” industry study by the “Wissenschaftliche Gesellschaft für Management und Beratung (WGMB)”. Wirtschaftswoche** recently honored another project with the “Best of Consulting” award.
“However, the results of our consulting work are more important to us than trophies and awards. With Staufen’s consultants, our clients implement groundbreaking changes worldwide and create a culture of continuous improvement that enables employees to develop their full potential and companies to significantly enhancing their economic performance,” says Staufen CEO Wilhelm Goschy.
