Glean Consulting
Meet the Leadership Team
Founder
Joanna Zarach
Joanna founded Glean Consulting in 2010, with the mission of creating a consulting service that would better help clients not just identify the right answer, but also implement those recommendations in a sustainable and enduring manner. Too often she had seen clients of other firms receive meaningful guidance, but then struggle to implement the recommendations.
She has a rigorous scientific training (Ph.D. in Neuroscience from Johns Hopkins University; B.Sc. in Biology, Brain and Cognitive Science from MIT), is an ex-McKinsey management consultant, and is passionate about deploying Big Data and AI to unlock new horizons of efficiency and growth.
