Outsourced Chief Impact Officer
Ongoing mentoring, strategic guidance and objective challenge - so you can keep making progress and scaling up your impact
We help you become unblocked, kick the tyres on impact-related issues and questions, consider things you haven’t considered, prioritise and make decisions
Some of the ways we’ve helped our clients:
Monthly accountability support - priority setting, accountability, a sounding board to help mitigate risks and unblock issues
Preparing for an important meeting (e.g. Board, a working group you chair) – advice on how to frame the conversation and what information to present
Creating a decision-making framework to use when taking on new clients / projects
Reviewing Board and Exec Team papers and providing feedback
Supporting with recruitment of impact roles – working out what you need, creating the role profile, reviewing applications, writing interview questions, sitting on interview panel
Preparing for a slot on Responsible Business at the all-staff away day
Signposting to other experts within our network – we won’t be able to help you with everything but we’ll know someone who can
If you’re feeling stuck and are looking for expert guidance and support, the best thing to do is set up a call. We will use the time to understand your situation, explore what support you need to achieve your goals, and identify whether we can help.
What our clients have said
Hannah has always been that calm, professional, clear head who always has a thought on how to move things forward. That’s been invaluable.
She focuses on tangible results and outcomes and understands the tension between making decisions that balance profit and purpose, and also idealism and realism, which is really helpful – a sustainability professional who also lives in the real world.
Myfanwy Neville, Partner and Head of Governance & Sustainability, BKL
Working with Keartland & Co was an invaluable experience for us.
We were struggling with how to frame a strategic debate on ESG and felt that external support could really help tackling our uncertainty. Hannah and Nicky provided guidance and clarity, challenging thinking and structuring an approach that built out a thoroughly engaging session.
