“Kellie Hinkle was a critical strategic partner as we worked as consultants to guide a large nonprofit organization through a significant period of change. Kellie is both extremely competent and fast! She quickly read the situation, analyzed the key data, assessed what was needed - and jumped in. She came up with creative solutions and successfully collaborated with the Executive Team and drove work teams, positively impacting results. Kellie is a strong, effective, and kind leader and I am grateful for her help, wisdom, and can-do spirit!”
