Veteran Consulting Leader Brings More Than 20 Years of Experience Helping Organizations Solve Their Most Pressing Leadership Challenges

AIIR Consulting today announced the appointment of Greg Leskew as Managing Partner. Based in Toronto, Canada, Greg will help the AIIR team continue to bring significant value to clients, serve as a strategic advisor to organizations navigating change, and support all facets of business development.

Greg has spent more than 20 years helping complex, global organizations turn leadership and talent strategy into measurable business results. His distinctly business-centric approach connects talent development directly to organizational outcomes, whether an organization is integrating an acquisition, executing an enterprise-wide transformation, strengthening its succession pipeline, or building the team effectiveness needed to deliver on its strategy. His extensive work with multinational organizations across industries, from financial services and engineering to energy, pharmaceuticals, and telecommunications, gives him a rich, cross-cultural perspective on what it takes to drive change on a global scale.

“Organizations today are navigating more disruption than at any point in recent memory, and the ones that win are those that treat leadership as a business strategy, not a program. What drew me to AIIR is its commitment to connecting leadership development directly to measurable business outcomes. I’m thrilled to join the team, and I look forward to helping our clients build the leadership capability their strategies demand.”

— Greg Leskew, Managing Partner, AIIR Consulting
