Managing Director & Senior Partner; BCG Fellow
Sydney
Andrew Dyer joined Boston Consulting Group in 1994 and has held numerous global and regional leadership roles at the firm, including global leader of the firm's client learning and enablement initiative, member of the executive committee, and global leader of the People & Organization practice. He is currently a member of the election committee and the firm’s investment office. Andrew is a BCG Fellow, as of 2017, applying his expertise in enablement to develop a way of looking at the future of corporate talent development in the digital age.
Andrew works with some of the world’s most ambitious and successful business leaders to drive digital transformation and create change both in terms of people and technology. Andrew’s work is based on his belief that the digital age requires a learning organization, and that means building the mindsets, knowledge, skills, and behaviors that are critical to success; and this must be done in conjunction with technology.
Andrew’s areas of expertise include strategy, organization design, and large-scale change management, especially in the financial and other service sectors. He was also the driving force behind BCG's research into Pathways to Accountable, Engaged, and Effective Organizations, ensuring its broader application across client work, especially in financial services companies.
During his time with the firm, Andrew has lived in three different countries and worked with clients in more than seven, including companies from across Asia-Pacific, the UK, and North America. He has worked with clients in banking (retail and investment), insurance (life and general), telecommunications, health insurance, and consumer goods.
