03 / ABOUTA strategist's rigor.
A strategist's rigor.
An operator's mindset.
Berna Holdings is an independent advisory practice led by Andres Bernaciak.
With 15+ years across strategy consulting and operating roles, I combine analytical problem-solving with the practical realities of running and improving businesses.
My experience spans financial services, business services, and industrials in the U.S. and Latin America, including senior roles at EY-Parthenon and L.E.K. Consulting and leadership roles in middle-market companies.
I'm most useful when a problem is ambiguous, a priority is critical, or a team needs both a clear plan and someone who can help deliver it.
