Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies	2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
	Interim Financial Information
	The financial information as of and for the three months ended August 24, 2013 and August 25, 2012 is unaudited but includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position at such dates and the operating results and cash flows for those periods. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, and certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules or regulations; however, the Company believes the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
	The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the fiscal year. These condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended May 25, 2013, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year then ended (File No. 0-32113).
	Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments
	The Company considers cash on hand, deposits in banks, and short-term investments purchased with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. The carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheets for cash,  cash equivalents and short-term investments approximate the fair values due to the short maturities of these instruments.
	Client Reimbursements of “Out-of-Pocket” Expenses
	The Company recognizes all reimbursements received from clients for “out-of-pocket” expenses as revenue and all such expenses as direct cost of services. Reimbursements received from clients were $2.0 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended August 24, 2013 and August 25, 2012, respectively.
	Foreign Currency Translation
	The financial statements of subsidiaries outside the U.S. are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated at current exchange rates, income and expense items are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the period and the related translation adjustments are recorded as a component of comprehensive income or loss. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
	Net Income Per Share Information
	The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”). Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is based upon the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period, calculated using the treasury stock method for stock options. Under the treasury stock method, assumed proceeds include the amount the employee must pay for exercising stock options, the amount of compensation cost for future services that the Company has not yet recognized and the amount of tax benefits that would be recorded in additional paid-in capital when the award becomes deductible. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation in periods in which they have an anti-dilutive effect. Stock options for which the exercise price exceeds the average market price over the period are anti-dilutive and are excluded from the calculation.
	The following table summarizes the calculation of net income per share for the periods indicated (in thousands, except per share amounts):
		Three Months Ended
		August 24,		August 25,
		2013		2012
	Net income	$	3,653	$	4,832

	Diluted:
	Weighted average shares		39,826		41,720

	Basic	$	0.09	$	0.12
	Dilutive	$	0.09	$	0.12
	Anti-dilutive shares not included above		8,736		8,360
	Stock-Based Compensation
	The Company recognizes compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options and employee stock purchases made via the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), based on estimated fair value at the date of grant.
	The Company estimates the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods. Stock options vest over four years and restricted stock award vesting is determined on an individual grant basis under the Company’s 2004 Performance Incentive Plan (“2004 Plan”). The Company determines the estimated value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the service period for options that are expected to vest and records adjustments to compensation expense at the end of the service period if actual forfeitures differ from original estimates.
	See Note 8 — Stock-Based Compensation Plans for further information on stock-based compensation.
	Use of Estimates
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although management believes these estimates and assumptions are adequate, actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used.

Contingent Consideration [Abstract]
Contingent Consideration	3. Contingent Consideration
	On November 20, 2009, the Company acquired certain assets of Sitrick And Company (“Sitrick Co”), a strategic communications firm, and Brincko Associates, Inc. (“Brincko”), a corporate advisory and restructuring firm, through the purchase of all of the outstanding membership interests in Sitrick Brincko Group, a Delaware limited liability company, formed for the purpose of the acquisition, pursuant to a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement by and among the Company, Sitrick Co, Michael S. Sitrick, an individual, Brincko and John P. Brincko, an individual (together with Mr. Sitrick, Sitrick Co and Brincko, the “Sellers”). Prior to the acquisition date, Mr. Sitrick and Nancy Sitrick were the sole shareholders of Sitrick Co and Mr. Brincko was the sole shareholder of Brincko. In addition, on the same date, the Company acquired the personal goodwill of Mr. Sitrick pursuant to a Goodwill Purchase Agreement by and between the Company and Mr. Sitrick (collectively with the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, the “Acquisition Agreements”). Sitrick Brincko Group is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. By combining the specialized skill sets of Sitrick Brincko Group with the Company’s existing consultant capabilities, geographic footprint and client base, the Company believes it has increased its ability to assist clients during challenging periods, particularly in the areas of management consulting, corporate advisory, strategic communications and restructuring services. This expected synergy gave rise to goodwill recorded as part of the purchase price of Sitrick Brincko Group.
	Contingent consideration may be payable to the Sellers in a lump sum following the fourth anniversary of the acquisition only if the average annual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) (calculated from each of the four one-year periods following the acquisition date) of Sitrick Brincko Group exceed $11.3 million. At the end of the four-year earn-out period, the Company will determine if the average annual EBITDA exceeded $11.3 million; if so, the contingent consideration payable is determined by multiplying the average annual EBITDA by 3.15 (representing the agreed upon multiple to be paid by the Company as specified in the Acquisition Agreements).
	As of August 24, 2013, the Company believes that it is unlikely that there will be a contingent consideration payment due in November 2013 to either the Sellers or an allocated portion of up to 20% to the employees of Sitrick Brincko Group.  Sitrick Brincko Group’s average EBITDA for the first three annual measurement periods ended in November 2012 was substantially below the required $11.3 million base and, after considering the results from December 2012 through August 2013 and an estimate for the quarter ended in November 2013, the Company believes it is unlikely that the average EBITDA for the four annual measurement periods will exceed the average EBITDA required for the contingent consideration payment. There is no contingent consideration liability recorded as of August 24, 2013.
	Although the Company believes that there will be no earn-out payment due in November 2013, it will continue to periodically review actual EBITDA results and an updated assessment of various probability weighted projected EBITDA scenarios of Sitrick Brincko Group; if circumstances change and the Company determines that an earn-out payment may be due, such future revisions would materially change the estimate of the fair value of contingent consideration and therefore materially affect the Company’s future financial results.
	In the event that the contingent consideration is not paid at the conclusion of the earn-out period, Mr. Brincko will be entitled to receive a cash payment of $2,250,000, subject to his employment in good standing with the Company as defined. As a result of the Company’s determination that it is unlikely that the contingent consideration will be earned, this amount is being recognized as a selling, general and administrative expense over the remaining service period from the time it was estimated that no contingent consideration will be due.

Income Taxes [Abstract]
Income Taxes	5. Income Taxes
	The Company’s provision for income taxes was $3.1 million (effective tax rate of approximately 46%) and $4.9 million (effective tax rate of approximately 50%) for the three months ended August 24, 2013 and August 25, 2012, respectively. The Company records tax expense based upon an actual effective tax rate versus a forecasted tax rate because of the volatility in its international operations which span numerous tax jurisdictions.
	The provision for income taxes in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and 2013 results from taxes on income in the U.S. and certain other foreign jurisdictions, no benefit for losses in jurisdictions in which a full valuation allowance on operating loss carryforwards had previously been established and a lower benefit for losses in certain foreign jurisdictions with tax rates lower than the U.S. statutory rates. The period to period decrease in the effective tax rate results primarily from the reversal of $350,000 of uncertain international tax position accruals for which the statute of limitations has expired. In addition, the inability to benefit from losses in jurisdictions with a full valuation allowance and the unpredictability of the timing and amount of eligible disqualifying incentive stock option (“ISO”) exercises impact the Company’s effective tax rate. The Company cannot recognize a tax benefit for the stock compensation expense related to certain ISO exercises unless and until the holder exercises his or her option and then sells the shares within a certain period of time. Also, the Company can only recognize a potential tax benefit for employees’ acquisition and subsequent sale of shares purchased through the ESPP if the sale occurs within a certain defined period. Further, tax benefits associated with ISO grants fully vested at the date of adoption of current accounting rules for stock-based compensation will be recognized as additions to paid-in capital when and if those options are exercised and not as a reduction to the Company’s tax provision. The Company recognized a benefit of approximately $590,000 and  $631,000 related to stock-based compensation for nonqualified stock options expensed and for eligible disqualifying ISO exercises during the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and 2013, respectively.

	As of August 24, 2013, the Company had outstanding grants under the 2004 Plan and the 1999 Long Term Incentive Plan (“1999 Plan”). The 2004 Plan serves as the successor to the 1999 Plan. At inception, a total of 7,500,000 new shares of common stock were made available for awards under the 2004 Plan to employees and non-employee directors. Awards under the 2004 Plan may include, but are not limited to, stock options and restricted stock grants. Outstanding awards under the 1999 Plan that expire or terminate without having been exercised roll over to the 2004 Plan. Stock options generally vest in equal annual installments over four years and terminate ten years from the date of grant. Restricted stock award vesting is determined on an individual grant basis. As of August 24, 2013, 559,000 shares were available for future award grants under the 2004 Plan, although awards of restricted stock under the 2004 Plan will be counted against the available share limit as two and a half shares for every one share actually issued in connection with the award. The Company’s policy is to issue shares from its authorized shares upon the exercise of stock options.
	The following table summarizes the stock option activity for the three months ended August 24, 2013 (number of options and intrinsic value in thousands):

	The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pretax intrinsic value, which is the difference between the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and the exercise price multiplied by the number of shares that would have been received by the option holders if they had exercised their “in the money” options on August 24, 2013. This amount will change based on the fair market value of the Company’s common stock. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised for the three months ended August 24, 2013 and August 25, 2012 was $289,000 and $134,000, respectively.
	Stock-Based Compensation Expense
	As of August 24, 2013, there was  $11.0 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested employee stock options granted. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 32 months. Stock-based compensation expense included in selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended August 24, 2013 and August 25, 2012 was $1.7 million and $1.8 million, respectively; this consisted of stock-based compensation expense related to employee stock options, employee stock purchases made via the Company’s ESPP and issuances of restricted stock. There were no capitalized share-based compensation costs during the three months ended August 24, 2013 and August 25, 2012.
	The weighted average estimated fair value per share of employee stock options granted during the three months ended August 24, 2013 was $3.73  using the Black-Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions:
		For the Three Months Ended
		24-Aug-13
	Expected volatility	42.1% - 44.1%
	Risk-free interest rate	1.1% - 1.7%
	Expected dividends	2.10%
	Expected life	5.3 - 7.5 years
	The Company granted 5,141 shares of restricted stock during the three months ended August 24, 2013. No shares of restricted stock were granted during the three months ended August 25, 2012.  Stock-based compensation expense for restricted shares for the three months ended August 24, 2013 and August 25, 2012 was $85,000 and $62,000, respectively. There were 78,741 unvested restricted shares, with approximately $814,000 of remaining unrecognized compensation cost, as of August 24, 2013.
	The Company recognizes compensation expense for only the portion of stock options and restricted stock that is expected to vest, rather than recording forfeitures when they occur. If the actual number of forfeitures differs from that estimated by management, additional adjustments to compensation expense may be required in future periods.
	The Company reflects, in its Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, the tax impact resulting from tax deductions in excess of expense recognized in its Consolidated Statements of Operations as a financing cash flow, which will impact the Company’s future reported cash flows from operating activities. Gross excess tax benefits totaled $1,000 and $7,000 for the three months ended August 24, 2013 and August 25, 2012, respectively.
	Employee Stock Purchase Plan
	The Company’s ESPP allows qualified employees (as defined in the ESPP) to purchase designated shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to 85% of the lesser of the fair market value of common stock at the beginning or end of each semi-annual stock purchase period. A total of 4,400,000 shares of common stock may be issued under the ESPP. The Company issued 176,000  and 411,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the ESPP for the three months ended August 24, 2013 and the year ended May 25, 2013, respectively. There were 610,000 shares of common stock available for issuance under the ESPP as of August 24, 2013.

	Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance which requires an unrecognized tax benefit to be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. To the extent the tax benefit is not available at the reporting date under the governing tax law or if the entity does not intend to use the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented as a liability and not combined with deferred tax assets. The guidance is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The amendments are to be applied to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist as of the effective date and may be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented. The Company does not expect that adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
	Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries. In March 2013, the FASB issued new guidance on a parent’s accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment upon derecognition of a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity.  This guidance requires that the parent release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income only if the sale or transfer result in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets had resided.  The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013.  The Company does not expect that adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
	Comprehensive Income. In February 2013, the FASB issued new guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income which requires a company to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, the effects on the line items of net income of significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income - but only if the item reclassified is required under GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2012. The amendments do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements. The information required under this guidance is already required to be disclosed elsewhere in the financial statements under GAAP and, therefore, the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
	Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. In July 2012, the FASB issued new guidance for annual and interim indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012.  The guidance allows an organization the option of first assessing qualitative factors to determine if a quantitative impairment test of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is necessary. If the qualitative assessment reveals that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired, a calculation of the asset’s fair value is required. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
	Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the SEC did not, or are not expected to, have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Interim Financial Information	Interim Financial Information
	The financial information as of and for the three months ended August 24, 2013 and August 25, 2012 is unaudited but includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position at such dates and the operating results and cash flows for those periods. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, and certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules or regulations; however, the Company believes the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
	The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the fiscal year. These condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended May 25, 2013, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year then ended (File No. 0-32113).
Cash, Cash Equivalents And Short-Term Investments	Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments
	The Company considers cash on hand, deposits in banks, and short-term investments purchased with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. The carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheets for cash,  cash equivalents and short-term investments approximate the fair values due to the short maturities of these instruments.
Client Reimbursements Of "Out-Of-Pocket" Expenses	Client Reimbursements of “Out-of-Pocket” Expenses
	The Company recognizes all reimbursements received from clients for “out-of-pocket” expenses as revenue and all such expenses as direct cost of services. Reimbursements received from clients were $2.0 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended August 24, 2013 and August 25, 2012, respectively.
Foreign Currency Translation	Foreign Currency Translation
	The financial statements of subsidiaries outside the U.S. are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated at current exchange rates, income and expense items are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the period and the related translation adjustments are recorded as a component of comprehensive income or loss. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Net Income Per Share Information	Net Income Per Share Information
	The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”). Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is based upon the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period, calculated using the treasury stock method for stock options. Under the treasury stock method, assumed proceeds include the amount the employee must pay for exercising stock options, the amount of compensation cost for future services that the Company has not yet recognized and the amount of tax benefits that would be recorded in additional paid-in capital when the award becomes deductible. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation in periods in which they have an anti-dilutive effect. Stock options for which the exercise price exceeds the average market price over the period are anti-dilutive and are excluded from the calculation.
	The following table summarizes the calculation of net income per share for the periods indicated (in thousands, except per share amounts):
		Three Months Ended
		August 24,		August 25,
		2013		2012
	Net income	$	3,653	$	4,832

	Dilutive	$	0.09	$	0.12
	Anti-dilutive shares not included above		8,736		8,360
Stock-Based Compensation	Stock-Based Compensation
	The Company recognizes compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options and employee stock purchases made via the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), based on estimated fair value at the date of grant.
	The Company estimates the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods. Stock options vest over four years and restricted stock award vesting is determined on an individual grant basis under the Company’s 2004 Performance Incentive Plan (“2004 Plan”). The Company determines the estimated value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the service period for options that are expected to vest and records adjustments to compensation expense at the end of the service period if actual forfeitures differ from original estimates.
	See Note 8 — Stock-Based Compensation Plans for further information on stock-based compensation.
Use Of Estimates	Use of Estimates
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although management believes these estimates and assumptions are adequate, actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used.
