Susan Hyatt, MS

Big Purpose Big Impact Ltd.’s founder and CEO, Susan Hyatt, spent 25+ years working with nonprofit organizations throughout the US, helping them to build social programs that delivered high-impact results and to actively measure their social impact. During her tenure, Sue noticed that often the corporate sponsored programs were either one-off initiatives or were not well aligned with the corporation’s DNA. Due to this, companies were not fully realizing the benefits of their social programs, and the nonprofit-corporate relationship did not grow and evolve but were often severed as new causes courted the company’s support.

 In addition to her consulting services, Sue creates in person and online training programs for businesses, nonprofit and agency staff, and board members on topics such as corporate social responsibility, strategic business-nonprofit partnerships, leadership, board development, and social impact measurement.

Sue is the author of four-time award winning book, Strategy for Good: Business Giving Strategies for the 21st Century. She was the founder and host of Strategy for Good Global Summits, a 5-day virtual conference held three years featuring 25+ top leaders annually in corporate social responsibility, business philanthropy, cause marketing, and employee volunteering.

Due to her expertise in CSR and organization development, Sue was selected to develop and serve as founding Executive Director of B:CIVIC (Business Committed to Investing and Volunteering in the Community) working with Colorado leaders from companies of all sizes in the development of a new business membership association dedicated to the promotion, recognition and advancement of business philanthropy and corporate social responsibility (CSR).

She has also worked with leaders from CARE, Habitat for Humanity, Save the Children, Pathfinder International, Heifer International, the US Agency for International Development, DaVita, Kaiser Permanente, Western Union, Suncor, and dozens of other businesses, nonprofit/non-governmental organizations, and local, state, and national government agencies throughout the U.S. and in 8 countries.

Sue holds a Masters degree in Community/Public Health Nutrition with a specialization in international development from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. She completed her PhD work in Sociology at Colorado State University specializing in social change and organization development. She was a Fulbright Scholar to the Sociology Department at the University of Helsinki, Finland, and an AAAS Science, Engineering and Diplomacy Postdoctoral Fellow at the U.S. Agency for International Development in Washington, DC.
