Beyond the Bio Podcast
Sanjay Dhiri, a partner in our London office, began his career doing important humanitarian and development work around the world. As he transitioned into consulting a few years later, he realized that a career at Bain meant the ability to keep his hand in his previous career through pro bono and volunteer work.
Sanjay Dhiri, a partner in our London office, joins us to examine the intersection of consulting, development, and humanitarian work. He discusses applying consulting skill sets, like problem structuring, analytics, and stakeholder management, to complex social-impact challenges.
Sanjay reflects on trade-offs between impact, pace, and scale, as well as the emotional demands of working in fragile contexts. Purpose-driven work requires both pragmatism and humility. Listen to him share insights on building a career that balances commercial rigor with meaningful impact.
In Beyond the Bio, Keith Bevans, partner and global head of consultant recruiting, dives deeper into the stories of some extraordinary Bain people, from their perspectives.
