I’m Mackenzie Banta and I’m in the business of creating positive impact in my community and the world.
I provide executive-level consulting, coaching, and training to impact organizations and their leaders.
My specialties include strategic planning, fundraising, leadership training, and organizational and professional development. One of my most valued specialties however, is creating connections. I have a sixth sense when it comes to finding and developing connections between people, ideas, resources, and opportunities. It is one of my strengths and has proven to be a catalyst for outstanding results. Explore more about my work here, and thank you for stopping by.
“The Conservation Lands Foundation (CLF) has had the opportunity to work with Mackenzie for many years as a fundraising, strategic planning and organizational development consultant for our 80+ member network of non-profit organizations. Through her extensive knowledge and experience guiding organizations through turbulent times, she has been able to help guide organizations through rough waters and emerge on the other side ready to engage in their mission more fully. Her intimate and deeply impactful fundraising support has allowed many organizations to set up systems, procedures, and cultures that enable staff to meaningfully engage with donors and fund important work across the West. CLF and our partners on the ground are extremely fortunate to work with someone as dedicated, knowledgeable and impactful as Mackenzie. We would HIGHLY recommend her consulting services to anyone in non-profit work.”
