Anthropos Consulting is the world’s first Corporate Anthropology organization. Founded in 1984, it applies anthropological methods of analysis in order to offer solutions that are both innovative and coherent with the organizations’ cultural and social realities, aiming at a full development of the organization as well as maximizing results.

One of the company’s most significant roles is to build the so-called ‘organization of the future’. Applying a unique methodology, we elaborate a consulting program, where leaders must think about how they will confront the future, preparing the organization to reinvent its activities in order to compete effectively in the marketplace in the following years.  

Since 1984, nearly 600 major Brazilian and international organizations have benefited from Anthropos Consulting’s services, including:InterBev, General Motors, IBM, Citibank, International Paper, Sun Microsystems, Mercedes-Benz, Petrobras, Gerdau SA, Purina, GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), Electrolux, Wella, Bank Boston, Unibanco, Itau, Grupo Votorantim, Grupo Rodobens, Sementes Selecta, TAM Airlines, and others (click here for a more detailed list).
