Our guest today on Moments of Clarity is Mark McKenzie-McHarg.
Mark is principal of Mach 2 Consulting, a Victorian consultancy which he co-founded in 1993. Prior to this, he had 5 years consulting experience with KPMG Management Consulting, as a senior consultant and then as an associate director. This followed 10 years public sector experience in local government management in metropolitan Melbourne.
Mark’s work in the public and private sectors has given him broad-ranging consulting experience in organisations as diverse as municipal councils, water authorities and merchant banks. The types of consulting engagements he has managed range from high level strategic and business planning to feasibility analysis, business case evaluation and leadership training programs.
Mark lives in the rural town of Yackandandah in North-East Victoria where he has a deep connection with the community. In March, 2002 a notice appeared in the window of the High Street petrol station announcing that it would be closing in ten days time. It was the only petrol station in the surrounding area and marked a potential decline of the town. Mark, along with six other people, decided to do something positive about it and formed a company called the Yackandandah Community Development Company Pty Ltd (YCDCo). Mark now pours much of his energy in community ventures around regional Victoria and building a sustainable and thriving future for the regions.
