Headstrong, a global consultancy and IT solutions firm, announced that the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals (IAOP) has ranked it 33rd in the annual Global Outsourcing 100 list in 2008 (ranked 50th in 2007).

The Global Outsourcing 100 is devoted to featuring the best of today's leading outsourcing service providers and tomorrow's rising stars. Along with its publication by IAOP, the list appears each year in FORTUNE® magazine in the special advertising section produced by IAOP.
