99.1     Press release announcing earnings results for the third quarter ended
         September 30, 2003


Item 12:  Disclosure of Results of Operations and Financial Condition

The information in this Current Report shall not be deemed "filed" for the
purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or
otherwise subjected to the liabilities of that Section. The information in this
Current Report shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration
statement or other document pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

On October 27, 2003, Right Management Consultants, Inc. (the Company), issued an
earnings release announcing its financial results for the third quarter ended
September 30, 2003. A copy of the earnings release is attached as Exhibit 99.1.

A "non-GAAP" financial measure is a measure of the issuer's financial
performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes amounts or
adjustments that are included in the most directly comparable measure presented
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The earnings
release discloses cash flow as of September 30, 2003 and 2002, a non-GAAP
financial measure. Management believes that certain investors find the
measurement of cash flow helpful in understanding the Company's ability to fund
its operations and growth, and service its debt. The earnings release contains a
reconciliation of cash flow to GAAP.

The Company held a conference call at 9:00 a.m. EST on October 27, 2003 to
discuss the earnings release. During this conference call, the following
third quarter same-office revenue statistics were provided. These statistics
exclude the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations from Europe and Japan.
