ICF International recognizes individuals who have set themselves
apart as leaders in their chosen consulting discipline. Selection
as a Distinguished Consultant is the highest company honor
that can be bestowed upon one of our consultants and is recognition
of the significant and sustained substantive accomplishments
of the awardees.
The individuals selected as the inaugural set of ICF International Distinguished Consultants are Paul
Bailey, Michael Barth, and Judah
Rose.
Distinguished Consultants serve as role models for staff
throughout the firm and receive an annual stipend to fund
their writing and speaking activities. They are called
upon periodically to provide advice and counsel on firm-wide

for clients, they also provide
internal seminars and other
training to further enhance the technical capabilities
of our staff.
