Drawing on extensive experience in experiential learning, my bespoke solutions respond to your unique needs, link learning to business performance and support and challenge you and your team to achieve great learning outcomes that create lasting change.
I strive for real clarity of purpose as the basis of everything that I do and I’m appreciated for my ability to ask the right questions to help others to do the same. I think and act big picture and whole system and use a people-focussed approach which aligns organisation strategy, people and processes to achieve your organisation’s goals.
My client relationships are long-standing and positive and I have a reputation for excelling at what I do. I have a wealth of experience as a project manager of large-scale, award winning, global organisation and leadership development initiatives.
And I like having fun while I do all this good stuff too. I do enjoy bringing a bit of humour and mischief into my work.

"In my experience it is rare to come across real talent that stands out as emphatically as Andy does. I have had the pleasure in working with Andy on several projects, both as a client and as a participant in his mentoring programme. Most recently I asked Andy to assist me with developing a business plan and roll out strategy for an all-encompassing change project at my company. He listened, questioned appropriately and assisted me in delivering a programme that ultimately delivered the high performing team that I was looking for. I felt he really understood what it was I was trying to achieve at every stage of the journey."
Jerry Taylor • Managing Director
“I worked with Andy over a three-year period within a transformation programme focussed on executive and leadership development, organisational alignment and cultural change. This was no small undertaking and I found Andy’s enthusiasm and passion to create real and sustained change both infectious and inspiring. He is a leader in his field and is able to draw on his extensive experience of working with leadership teams to design appropriate solutions that are right for you and your organisation.”
San Johal • HR Director
“It’s been my pleasure to have worked with Andy on several high-profile initiatives over the years. He’s a seasoned OD practitioner with extensive experience across a wide range of sectors. Andy brings an enquiring mind, sound insight and a disciplined approach when developing effective solutions for clients. He’s clearly motivated by a desire to deliver clear, relevant and durable outcomes and, as such, is an excellent partner who excels in building lasting relationships.”
Jonathan Stevens • Head of Consulting
“We engaged Andy Harmer Consulting in the construction of our force leadership and development offer. Andy provides a wonderful blend of experience from business, military and academia, and was easy to work with. The style with our people was relaxed, engaging and conversational, helping us to define the leadership traits in our staff we wanted to develop in the fast pace of modern 21century policing.”
Paul Anderson • Chief Constable, Humberside Police
“Andy and I worked together on a major leadership development programme. His contribution was vital to its success. Andy cares passionately about helping the people he works with improve. He was a skilful and responsive partner, good at listening and creative in finding some excellent solutions. He is also good to be around…we are still in touch years later!”
Iain Hildyard • Director, Talent Development at Barclaycard
"When I took up post as CEO, British Army Recruiting Group, my Senior Leadership Team and I crystallised rapidly, an ambition to move up a gear and become a truly high-performing team. Andy’s hands-on support has moved us a long way towards meeting that ambition. Andy has worked with us over four strategy and organisational development away days, providing structure, coaching, insight, and practical advice and support on how to enhance team performance. Andy’s greatest strength is his ability rapidly to develop empathy and rapport with a diverse team, balanced with honesty and candour in his feedback and collective mentoring. As a senior leader, I have benefitted personally from Andy’s wisdom, insight, and observations from his experience of coaching and consulting across a broad range of sectors and leadership groups. I would highly recommend Andy’s services to anyone who is looking to move their team’s ethos and performance to the next level."
