IDC OPINION This study represents the vendor assessment model called IDC MarketScape. This research is a quantitative and qualitative assessment of the characteristics that explain a vendor's current and future success in the digital strategy consulting services marketplace. This study assesses the capabilities and business strategies of 13 prominent digital strategy consulting services vendors. This evaluation is based on a comprehensive framework and a set of parameters expected to be most conducive to success in providing digital strategy consultancy. A significant component of this evaluation is the inclusion of digital strategy consulting buyers' perception of both the key characteristics and the capabilities of these providers. This client input was provided primarily from the vendors' clients, supplemented with a worldwide survey. Key findings include: . Consultancies are getting the basics right. Reference clients that IDC spoke with were impressed by the quality of the people from the leading digital strategy consultancies. On average, reference clients gave consultancies highest scores for people quality, action orientation, and client-specific insight. This indicates that digital strategy consultancies are getting the basics right — they are recruiting smart and empathetic people and are training and developing them well, they are getting to know their clients inside out, and they are producing very useful advice as a result. Clients want to be challenged more than ever by their digital strategy consultants.

  • Reimagine a Brighter Future Stockholders
    ANNUAL REPORT 2020 REIMAGINE A BRIGHTER FUTURE STOCKHOLDERS Our full fiscal year fee revenues were $1.93 billion, an all-time high, and we delivered $301 million of adjusted EBITDA.1 But it’s the last several months that have truly defined us. This has been a time unlike anything most of us have experienced in our lifetimes. Long-overdue calls for social equality, a persistent global pandemic, recovery curves—the only certainty these days is uncertainty. Amid all this change, I have never been prouder of how our firm has responded. I truly feel that over the next 2 years there will be more change than in the last 10 years. Different work needs to get done, and work needs to get done differently. That’s an opportunity for our company. As an organizational consulting firm, we are committed to enabling people and organizations to exceed their potential—and to exceed potential, people need an abundance of opportunity, development, and sponsorship, which is foundational to our service offerings. I believe that we are the right firm at the right time to help drive client performance through change. Calls for change across society have sparked an unprecedented catalyst to amplify our voice on diversity, equity, and inclusion— both within Korn Ferry and among our clients. We have quickly mobilized our colleagues, expertise, and offerings. We will continue to raise an active and intentional voice to strongly condemn racism and engage in candid dialogue to listen, understand, and then lead through action. Some of the key accomplishments of the last few months, showing the agility of our firm as we address the pandemic, social action, and more, include: • Adopting a framework of safety, caution, and agility to navigate the crisis, which included mobilizing almost all our global colleagues to a work-from-home environment in the course of days and adjusting our business to the current reality, while preserving tremendous muscle to accelerate through the economic turn.
