As a top-ranked, industry-leading company generating nearly $1 billion in annual revenue on multimillion-dollar, multiyear projects for high-profile clients such as Amazon, Nike, GE and Starbucks, it’s no surprise that Gaylor is now the first company in ABC’s 75-year history to earn the award twice. So what’s their secret to success? Putting people first—and a firm belief that individual strengths, brought together, create exceptional outcomes. “We are an attraction company, not a recruiting company.
