The Bridgespan Group is a U.S. nonprofit organization headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts that provides management consulting to nonprofits and philanthropists.[1][2] In addition to consulting, Bridgespan makes case studies freely available on its website and publications.[3]
Bridgespan was launched in 1999 by Thomas Tierney, formerly managing director of Bain & Company, professor Jeffrey Bradach, from Harvard Business School, and Paul Carttar, formerly a vice president at Bain & Company.[1][4] The organization has received substantial support from Bain, with whom it has maintained a close relationship. The firm has six offices worldwide.[5]
