This month, Dan Doherty took over as head of U.S. Market Development for KPMG's advisory practice. Tasked to design and execute a growth strategy aimed at enhancing the firm's competitive position in the marketplace, Doherty will lead a team of partners in charge of KPMG's Advisory regional business units around the country. Doherty, a licensed CPA and 26-year veteran of the life sciences, consumer products, retail and manufacturing sectors, served as the firm's Advisory Partner in Charge for the Midwest for the last six years. He says the firm's commitment to its clients, and what he calls a virtuous cycle of good clients and good people, have helped build a client list that he called " the envy of the market." Consulting One on One sat down recently with Doherty.
