Strategy & advice for Long lasting Impact
Philanthropy, Governance and Family Alignment
Welcome
Kenzie Co is an independent consultancy founded by
Ruth McKenzie. Ruth provides independent senior strategic counsel to families, wealth advisers, and for purpose organisations navigating philanthropy, governance and long-term decision-making.
Who I Help
Engagements are focused, time-bound and tailored. I work quietly alongside clients and advisors, helping them move from discussion to clarity and practical next steps.
Families & Private Clients
I work as an independent strategic counsel and trusted intermediary, helping families to clarify priorities, understand options, ask the right questions, and make confident decisions without overwhelm.
Wealth Advisors
I work as a discreet, senior engagement partner alongside advisors to help them build stronger, more enduring client relationships through clear engagement strategies and high-quality touchpoints.
For Purpose & Not-For-Profit
I work with purpose-led and not-for-profit organisations across Australia and New Zealand, supporting leaders to build clarity, confidence and capability around fundraising and sustainability.
What this looks like in practice
In practice, this often means supporting families to clarify intent, helping advisers navigate complex family dynamics, or working with Boards and leadership teams to build confidence around fundraising and philanthropic growth.
