#10 Large Company

North Highland emerged in the Florida market in the late 90s, bringing a unique perspective to the consulting space, differentiating itself from competitors already established in the market. The global consulting firm extended its reach within the state, including opening and growing offices in Tallahassee, Orlando, Jacksonville and Tampa. This expansion in Florida helped boost an 18-year growth spurt for North Highland, which now operates in more than 50 cities around the world. More than 100 Florida businesses and organizations, including Fortune 500 companies, state government and leading nonprofits, depend on North Highland to help them solve complex challenges, from organizational strategy to data analytics and everything in between.

“Our value proposition is that we deliver enterprise-wide strategies to solve the combined challenges of people, process and technology in large complex organizations. Change management can present major issues for our clients, and our people are passionate about helping them grow and evolve,” says Barbara Ray, vice president and lead of North Highland’s public sector practice.

As the transformation of the global business and IT landscape accelerates, North Highland is continuing its dynamic evolution to stay ahead of the needs of its clients. Major shifts in consumer trends, along with the ongoing revolutions in technology, are increasing client demands for high-level business process and IT strategy work.

“These are men and women who live here, have a vested interest in the local economy and are actively involved in their communities,” says Steve Carter, vice president and Florida market lead, who also leads North Highland’s international growth and development. “Because they have ownership in our firm, they are highly motivated personally and are passionate about what they do. We bring our expertise and forward-thinking views to deliver innovative work, creating tremendous client loyalty.”
