History

Established in 2000.

Angela Sinickas has been building research and measurement into the work she did in corporations as an editor, manager and vice president since the early years of her career. She continued using research during 13 years at large consulting firms. When she started her own consultancy in June 2000, she decided to specialize in helping communicators measure their work so that they can gain more credibility as a business function within their own organizations. She has now worked with 23% of the Forbes 100 largest global organizations, as well as smaller organizations, governments and NGOs.
