Bain & Company is one of the world's leading business consulting firms. They work with top executives to help them make better decisions, convert those decisions to actions, and deliver the sustainable success they desire. For forty years, they have been passionate about achieving better results for their clients—results that go beyond financial and are uniquely tailored, pragmatic, holistic, and enduring.

They advise global leaders on their most critical issues and opportunities: strategy, marketing, organization, operations, technology and mergers & acquisitions, across all industries and geographies.

They have worked with the majority of the Global 500, thousands of major regional and local companies, and private equity funds representing 75 percent of global equity capital. They are proud of their clients'​ track record, like the fact that their public clients have historically outperformed the stock market 4 to 1.

What they do:

When someone asks what they do at Bain, it’s tempting to point out their four-decade track record for helping to transform the world’s great companies into sharper, smarter, better versions of themselves. It’s true; their mission is to help management teams create such high levels of economic value that together they redefine their respective industries.

But that's only part of the story.

The rest of the story is about their people, their values, their passion, and their way of doing things—intangibles that can't be financially measured or modeled but that truly make the difference. As their clients have outperformed the S&P by four to one, one by one, they experience the power of those intangibles.

Bain works across all types of industries, with all kinds of clients:

-Large multinational corporations
-Leading private equity firms
-Midsize companies
-Small start-ups
-Nonprofit organizations

But what unifies their clients, is that they all tend to be bold, ambitious business leaders.

-They think and act like owners.
-They are not satisfied with the status quo.
-They want a sparring partner to challenge them.
-They want a personal trainer to push them to their best, not a "yes-man."

On every case, they look at the business from a chief executive's perspective. They start by asking the right questions, and then dig deep into the numbers to unearth the right solutions. They don't settle for off-the-shelf solutions, their approach and recommendations are highly customized. They help clients decide where they want to go, and how to get there.

And they don't stop there. They make sure those decisions get translated quickly into action and that the client's team can sustain the momentum into the future. They commit to leaving organizations stronger than when they arrive.
