Towers Perrin-ISR: A History of Helping Organizations Succeed
Towers Perrin-ISR’s core philosophy has been consistent for 30 years: an organization’s people are the key to its success. As the world's premier global employee research and consulting firm, Towers Perrin-ISR designs and implements employee, management, and customer surveys to produce insight that helps senior leaders to enhance their human assets. With our assistance, organizations can manage, perform, and compete more effectively.
Towers Perrin-ISR was an international firm from the very beginning, with offices in both Chicago and London. We focused on supporting the employee research needs of multinationals, where there are significant complexities created by time, distance, language, and culture. Our expertise and reputation grew quickly. In the years since 1974 we’ve opened additional wholly owned offices around the world.
Our highly educated and experienced consultants provide insider analysis to many of the world's largest and most successful organizations. Towers Perrin-ISR’s clients include national and multinational companies, not-for-profit organizations, and public-sector agencies in more than 100 countries. In excess of 35 million employees from over 3,000 companies have communicated their views in a Towers Perrin-ISR survey, participating in a process that helps their organizations to grow and prosper.
We offer a rare opportunity with an Elite organization.
