Illustrated portrait of Anar Enkhtuya

Hi, I'm Anar 👋

Digital transformation and digital marketing consultant in Mongolia. I make technology work for the people who have to use it.

📍Ulaanbaatar now 💼Open for remote projects 🎓Melbourne from January 2027, Australia Awards scholar 🏢Four years at Rio Tinto, wrapped up

What I do.

Four things, all learned by doing them for real companies, real programmes and real small businesses.

🏢

Rollouts that stick

Training, support and hypercare for new enterprise systems, built so people actually use the thing after go live.

What that looked like

Sole Training Lead for Rio Tinto's Dynamics 365 Project Operations rollout: six Rise 360 courses, guides, a support site and hypercare for 500+ users across Ulaanbaatar, Brisbane and Montreal, in English and French.

For enterprises, mining, banks and multinationals
📈

Growth for small businesses

Digital marketing that a first time business owner can run on a phone, taught in plain Mongolian.

What that looked like

460+ young entrepreneurs trained through EBRD's Youth in Business and Grow with Google. 94% satisfaction, 84% applied a practice within a month, 50+ businesses with new sales, and a peer community that outlived the funding.

For founders, and the banks, donors and associations behind them
🤖

AI that does real work

Workflows, agents and content pipelines, plus the people trained to run them and the guardrails to keep them honest.

What that looked like

At Rio Tinto I piloted AI assisted production of 26 bilingual training modules, saving 264 hours of work a month and about $70,000. I build the same kind of thing for teams that want results, not demos.

For teams of any size
📊

Did it work?

Baseline surveys, follow ups and outcome reports for youth and SME programmes, so the answer is more than attendance.

What that looked like

Designed the evaluation for EBRD's Youth in Business programme in Mongolia: 370 survey responses and the outcomes report for the bank and its partners. From 2027, studying evaluation and public policy at the University of Melbourne.

For development partners, ministries and NGOs

A life in two systems.

One big, one small. I've spent ten years walking between them.

The kitchen table

My mother raised me on her own and ran a small business from a folding table against our kitchen wall in Ulaanbaatar. I did my homework at the same table while she added up the day in a notebook. Some months she counted the money twice. That is where I learned what a small business costs the person running it.

The far side of the map

I trained toward the national volleyball team until a car accident at eighteen ended that. A year later I was the first Mongolian counsellor at a summer camp in Vermont, teaching archery to kids who couldn't find my country on a map.

Ten marketers, one IPO

At twenty one I was leading ten marketers through a fintech IPO, explaining shares to a country that had rarely bought any. We raised ₮10.5 billion. I graduated with top honours the same year and wanted to see how the biggest systems are built from the inside.

The big system

Rio Tinto gave me four years inside the largest system I will probably ever see. I built the training that let 500 people on three continents use the same tool. The software was never the hard part. People were.

The small one

In the same years I kept going back: 460 entrepreneurs trained with EBRD and Google, ten cohorts of YPG mentorship, four years with Global Shapers. In 2027 I'll be in Melbourne on an Australia Awards Scholarship, learning how to prove that any of it worked.

Next stop: University of Melbourne, 2027

Off the clock.

Kind words.

"Compared to many students I have taught at a similar stage, he showed an early ability to think structurally and not just tactically, and to connect technical decisions with bigger social and institutional consequences."
