Guidehouse is proud to announce that Chief Operating Officer (COO) Charles Beard has been named COO of the Year for a Private Company by WashingtonExec. The winners for the Chief Officer Awards, a program that highlights and recognizes C-suite executives both in industry and government, were announced at a virtual ceremony on June 17th.

Charles Beard oversees the day-to-day performance of Guidehouse's business operations, and points to the acquisition of Navigant Consulting as one of the company's most significant 2019 achievements.
