At Impact Compass, we believe that true & resilient leadership in sustainability is not just about doing more – it’s about doing what matters most, with clarity, conviction and care.
The name reflects a truth we hold close:
In a world full of complexity, urgency, and competing demands, leaders need a compass – not just a map. A compass will help you orient to your values, your purpose, and the long arc of change you’re here to shape. It helps you navigate ambiguity and stay aligned with what truly matters, even when the terrain is shifting beneath your feet.

The “Impact” in our name honors your commitment to real, lasting change – not just GHG metrics or goal performance, but transformation that’s regenerative, equitable, and deeply human.
Compass.
The “Compass” speaks to how we support you – not by handling your answers, but by helping you and your organization find your own true directions, so you can lead with authenticity, resilience, and resolve.
What We Stand For
Clarity over Chaos
We create space for deep reflection, so you can cut through complexity, reconnect with your inner wisdom, and act with intention in a noisy world.
Nature as Teacher
We draw inspiration from natural systems – their resilience, adaptability, and interdependence- and help you embody those same qualities in your leadership. You are not separate from nature; your leadership is part of a living system.
Global Perspective, Local Roots
We understand that systems change transcends borders. With a globally informed lens and lived international experience, we support leaders navigating cultural nuance, global transitions, and place-based action.
You already have the map.
We help you follow your compass.
