The Monitor Group, headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, is still led by the entrepreneurs who set out more than two decades ago to create a different kind of consulting firm, linking cutting-edge intellectual property with a diverse array of human, technical, and financial assets. Monitor is now a family of professional service firms, employing more than 1,000 professionals, operating in a closely-linked network of 29 offices around the globe, and sharing the assets it has built—knowledge, expertise, skill, and capital. Those assets are used to create customized solutions for clients seeking to enhance competitiveness and capability, and are delivered through a blend of channels, including: consulting interventions; management development programs; customized software and intelligent tools; cutting-edge market research; venture capital and advisory services; and private equity.
The Monitor Institute is the vehicle through which Monitor Group works to amplify and accelerate the public benefit created by innovative private actors—citizens, nonprofit organizations, philanthropists, and corporations. In 2005, the Institute is beginning a new stage of strategic experimentation with key partners and clients in the U.S. and around the world. Monitor Group has long excelled at addressing complex, integrated, and intractable competitive challenges. The Institute will draw on the Group’s now extensive and varied expertise to create, test, use, and share innovations and insights aimed at transforming how complex, integrated, and intractable social challenges are addressed in the next generation.
Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, Global Business Network was founded in 1987 as a unique learning community built on ruthless curiosity, collaboration, and powerful new tools for thinking about and shaping the future. A member of the Monitor Group since 2000, GBN's network blends strategic thinkers from leading companies; visionaries from the sciences, arts, business, and academia; and a community of practice engaged in innovating and transferring tools for scenario thinking and strategic action. GBN’s services include scenario and strategy consulting with corporations, governments, and nonprofits; the WorldView membership service, a rich mix of meetings, publications, and collaborations for foresight professionals; and scenario training to enhance organizational capacity to think long-term.
