I know I should do something, but I'm not sure what.”
What I've done


Ellie and Tally, our very manipulative dogs.
I’m Kevin Hicks, a COO who works with multiple mission-driven organizations to get them unstuck and aligned. My work focuses on turning strategy into action, developing operational discipline, and creating the leadership capacity needed to thrive.
I’ve done A LOT with nonprofits. Multiple board treasurers (DREAMS, NCCLT, PTAs). Board President (NCCLT). And helped launch the first-ever nonprofit insurance company, Terrafirma, for the Land Trust Alliance (ask me about captive insurance).
I’ve served in executive roles in both nonprofit and private sector environments, including stints as COO, CFO, and VP of Sales & Finance. And I’ve led dozens of high-impact initiatives across operations, communications, IT, finance, customer experience, and board governance.

My mission
To help build high-performance, high-trust teams that honor people, defy the critics, and thrive through sustainable execution.
Hi, I'm Kevin.
