As an Africa-based partner in Kearney’s strategy and organizational transformation practices, Theo Sibiya says he takes joy in bringing global perspectives to the continent’s most pressing issues. “It’s a global contest, and our clients like having Kearney come with perspectives developed in other parts of the world and see them applied in their region,” Theo says. “We’re able to tap into our global network and develop robust localized and customized solutions—that’s critical for our clients’ success.” Based in Johannesburg, Theo has industry and consulting experience with senior executives across a broad range of industries, supporting them in large strategic transformation projects, business and operating model reviews, business productivity improvement initiatives, and targeted strategy interventions such as commercialization strategies and turnarounds.
