Global consultancy Berkeley Research Group (BRG) has named former EY senior vice chair Michael Inserra as chair of the board. He assumes the role a year after TowerBrook Capital Partners completed a majority equity investment in the firm.
“BRG has built its reputation as a trusted advisor around the same qualities that Mike brings to the table: a proven ability to scale and lead businesses through widespread disruption, a deep-seated commitment to innovation and unparalleled change management skills,” said Tri MacDonald, president and chief executive officer of BRG.
“Mike’s track record leading global, multibillion-dollar businesses and executing enterprise-wide transformation initiatives will be invaluable as we continue to scale the firm and invest in our people and capabilities.”
Succeeding Jack Azagury, Inserra will work closely with BRG’s leadership team to guide the firm’s strategic direction and support its long-term growth objectives. He assumes the role at BRG a year after TowerBrook Capital Partners completed a majority equity investment in the firm and at a time of continued expansion as BRG focuses on strengthening its global platform, deepening client relationships and attracting top-tier talent across its practices.
Inserra brings deep experience leading organizations through transformation and change, having guided complex professional services firms through periods of growth, disruption and strategic evolution. As a senior leader at EY, he played a central role in shaping the firm’s growth strategy and driving large‑scale transformation initiatives, including change programs designed to modernize operations, strengthen collaboration and prepare the organization for the future of work.
Since departing EY, Inserra has continued to work at the intersection of strategy, talent and transformation, advising private equity firms and portfolio companies on leadership, organizational effectiveness and operating model changes, particularly in environments shaped by rapid technological advancement and evolving client expectations.
“BRG is exceptionally well positioned at a moment of significant change across the professional services landscape,” said Inserra. “The firm’s collaborative culture, entrepreneurial mindset and focus on impact set it apart. I’m excited to support BRG’s leadership as it continues to grow by embracing innovation while staying true to its core values. I’m also grateful to Jack Azagury for his leadership and partnership in positioning the firm for its next chapter.”
BRG is a global consulting firm that helps leading organisations advance in three key areas: corporate finance, performance improvement, and disputes and investigations. The US-headquartered group has around 1,600 people worldwide.
