About Arthur D. Little
Hult International Business School was formerly known as the Arthur D. Little School of Management before it was renamed in 2003. The School was initially started by the venerable consulting firm, Arthur D. Little Inc, in 1964 to train global managers and business executives.
Arthur Dehon Little (1863-1935) was an MIT-educated chemist who is known as the father of the consulting industry. Dr. Little started Arthur D. Little Inc. (ADL), the world's oldest management consulting firm, in 1886 in Cambridge, Massachusetts. As the first to see the need for a professional organization to provide systematic research and development and sage advice to industry, Dr. Little began the original consulting practice that spawned successors like BCG, McKinsey, Bain and Monitor. For 120 years, the company and ideas that Arthur D. Little conceived have helped industry and governments manage change induced by technological, economic and social forces. Today, ADL is part of an international network of more than 16,000 professionals in more than 40 offices around the world.
