Kim Stewart is on a mission to help nonprofits "do good" even better. With over 35 years of experience leading organizations of all sizes, she’s a fierce advocate for strong, strategic Boards of Directors that drive real impact. In 2020, Kim traded in her staff role for the chance to serve multiple organizations, launching her consulting practice to help nonprofits build powerhouse governance teams.
As a coach, consultant, trainer, and facilitator, Kim specializes in turning well-meaning but wobbly boards into engaged, high-performing leadership teams. Her deep expertise comes from years of guiding volunteer Boards of Directors with YMCAs across the Midwest and Colorado. She knows firsthand what it takes to recruit, develop, and inspire the right board members—and she’s here to help organizations do just that.
Originally from Iowa, Kim built her business while living in Colorado and now happily splits her time between the two states, with her home base in Des Moines. Her world revolves around her two incredible young adults, Libby and Callahan, who share her love for the outdoors, live music, art, and a good book. Giving back is in her DNA—she serves on the Board of Tri-Lakes Cares and volunteers as a Bike Valet at local events (because who doesn’t love a two-wheeled adventure?)
