Alex Sierra, based in Minneapolis, specializes in executive search, assessment, and development within the Industrial Practice. He brings over 15 years of experience driving improvements in operations, growth, human capital and culture within industrial organizations.

The realization that every individual is better than us at something sets leaders on a journey of humility, curiosity and life-long learning; I am thrilled to be the trusted 'travel companion' for leaders and their organizations in this path of discovery, development and transformation.

Starting on the manufacturing shop floor as a maintenance and reliability engineer, Alex's career developed through operations, commercial, strategy, and corporate development leadership roles before moving to management consulting. Most recently, he was an Associate Partner at McKinsey & Company, working with leadership teams at multinational and PE-owned industrial companies on performance and organizational health transformations. Previously, he worked for ThyssenKrupp Elevator in production, sales, strategy and M&A in Europe, Africa & the Middle East, and for Rio Tinto Alcan and Total Energies in Operational Excellence in Canada and France.

Alex earned an MSc in Engineering from Ecole Centrale de Lyon (France), an MSc in Mechanical Engineering from Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (Spain), and an MBA from Dartmouth College. He is a Certified Member of the American Society of Maintenance & Reliability Professionals. Outside of work, Alex loves spending time with his family—enjoying the outdoors, traveling and cooking with them.
