The Gallup Organization
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Gallup Organization provides a variety of management consulting, human resources and statistical research services. The Gallup Organization has over 40 offices in 27 countries. World headquarters are in Washington, D.C.; operational headquarters are in Omaha, Nebraska.
The Gallup Organization was founded in 1958, when George Gallup grouped all of his polling operations into one organization. After Gallup's death in 1984, The Gallup Organization was sold to Selection Research, Incorporated (SRI) of Lincoln, Nebraska in 1988. SRI, founded in 1969 by the psychologist Don Clifton, pioneered the use of talent-based structured psychological interviews.
The Gallup Organization is the host and lead sponsor of the annual International Positive Psychology Summit, which is held each fall at Gallup's World Headquarters in Washington, D.C. The Summit is the annual meeting of the world's leading academics in the emerging science of Positive Psychology and of the decision-makers that apply the best of this research in an effort to improve people's lives.
The current CEO of The Gallup Organization is James Clifton.
