The Global Strategy & Insights team
Our Strategy & Insights team is the primary decision-support engine and incubator for BCGDV’s most important initiatives. As part of this team you fully immerse yourself in data collection, draw insight from analysis, and then zoom out to develop compelling, synthesized recommendations. Taking strategy one step further, you also persuasively communicate your recommendations to DV’s executive team & partnership, roll-up your sleeves to help drive implementation and check back-in to see the impact of your recommendations.
