Chatting with Chief Executive Officer(CEO) at Bridge Institute Mac McKenzie from London, United Kingdom- Simon “Mac” McKenzie – Chief Executive Officer, Bridge Institute, London, United Kingdom. It was an inspiring conversation with Simon “Mac” McKenzie, Chief Executive Officer of the Bridge Institute, on my podcast Smart Cherrys Thoughts.
Mac leads the Bridge Institute, a global, non-partisan, and apolitical non-profit organization that unites senior leaders from government, business, and civil society to solve the world’s most pressing challenges — from conflict resolution and education reform to climate and equality — all aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
With over a decade of leadership experience at the Bridge Institute, Mac shared his deep insights on redefining leadership, building unlikely alliances, and creating systemic solutions for complex global problems. A graduate of the University of Oxford with a Master’s in Engineering, Economics, and Management, he combines analytical expertise with human-centered leadership.
Beyond his professional achievements, Mac’s passion for sports, mountaineering, and leadership development reflects his belief that endurance, teamwork, and vision are essential to creating lasting impact.
It was a privilege to have him on Smart Cherrys Thoughts, discussing how collaboration and empathy can reshape the world’s toughest challenges.
