Chartered Management Consultant of the year

Antoinette Meehan (AK) is a Director in PwC Consulting and one of the firm’s most trusted management consultants, leading complex, high-stakes transformation in sectors where judgement, pace and credibility are critical. She operates at the intersection of human-centred leadership and emerging technology, helping organisations navigate moments where commercial pressure, uncertainty and human impact converge.
What distinguishes AK is the quality of her judgement under pressure, the energy, ambition and clarity she brings to leadership teams navigating change. Clients consistently seek her out for technical expertise, her ability to surface difficult truths with empathy, reframe entrenched thinking, and help organisations imagine more ambitious, future-ready paths.
Since becoming Chartered in 2021, AK has demonstrated an exceptional ability to balance innovation with ethical responsibility, pace with sustainability, and commercial ambition with deeply human leadership. Whether aligning global leaders around a unified customer vision, governing post-merger complexity at scale, or rebuilding executive confidence during organisational strain, her work consistently leaves organisations stronger than she found them: with clearer strategic direction, greater executive confidence and more resilient operating models grounded in trust and accountability.
Beyond client delivery, AK is shaping PwC’s perspective across Industrial Manufacturing, Automotive, Mobility and Electrification, reframing technology as a means to enhance human judgement rather than replace it. She is also a deeply trusted mentor and advocate for sustainable leadership, investing in the growth, confidence and wellbeing of future leaders.
AK embodies the Chartered Management Consultant designation: expert, ethical and deeply human leadership that endures long after programmes end.
