Testimonials

  • "Within a startup organization, a leader quickly runs into complexity and confusion.  Questions arise around investment/fundraising, strategy, capacity and mission.  Working with Aligned Impact has been a tremendous “value add”, helping us better think through the logic behind our work.  Kelly Hannum is a talented facilitator, evaluator and thought partner.  She provided our team with the needed tools and external advice to shape not only our approach in to how to monitor and evaluate our work but to align our mission to key activities.  I have recommended Aligned Impact and Kelly to many colleagues in the social and education sectors."

  • "I've had the distinct privilege to work with Kelly over a number of years as a colleague. Kelly’s ability to tackle complex topics, and find logical solutions is unparalleled. I've observed first hand her interactions with clients, and the power she has to create insights and awareness about topics that clients have struggled to find clarity. Kelly's wisdom is complimented by a tremendous sense of humor, and the ability to connect with professionals in a way to put them at ease to focus on the work at hand."

  • "Kelly Hannum is my go-to person for program evaluation and measurement questions. She is a thoughtful and pragmatic advisor, skilled at translating terms and concepts into layperson’s language and meeting the client where they are (including working within existing management constraints on a project!). I have brought her in to meet with my team at United Way to review and update our evaluation process, and to help define and articulate certain criteria for our partner agencies’ funding applications. Kelly’s down-to-earth manner put us all at ease; and her feedback boosted our confidence and credibility, validated our efforts, and saved us time and confusion."

  • "As the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation developed a coaching pilot program for our first-year Scholars, we knew that we had a good idea and a receptive audience and that we needed a talented team to fully realize our vision. Kelly’s thoughtful questions around our goals, desired outcomes, and definitions of success helped ensure that our already solid plan launched spectacularly. She was an engaged partner throughout the process, evaluating how we were doing and identifying course corrections where needed. She responded quickly and creatively when we needed to zig when we had anticipated zagging. She has been an important part of the success of this initiative. We look forward to our continued work as we expand this and other programs in the future."

She quickly understood what we needed and created and implemented an evaluation approach that was practical and insightful."
