OUR CLIENTS
THE PROBLEM WE SOLVE
Talented leaders work harder instead of smarter.
High-performing leaders in the social sector rarely lack commitment or talent. What they lack is a trusted thought partner who understands both the strategic complexity of the work and the unique pressures that come with leading through change.
Strategic Fog
Your direction feels unclear, fragmented, or stuck. You need someone who can help you cut through the noise.
Alignment Gaps
Your board, team, and partners aren’t aligned around a shared strategic direction. This lack of alignment is stalling organizational progress and impact.
Critical Transitions
You are navigating a leadership transition, organizational restructure, or new strategy. You need more than advice.
Execution Drag
You have a clear strategy and you need a thought partner and advisor who will be by your side from vision through implementation.
HOW WE HELP
Coaching and strategy, integrated.
Every engagement brings both strategic rigor and a coaching mindset. We don't just hand you a plan—we build your capacity to execute it and lead through whatever comes next.

MEET THE FOUNDER
Jason Quiara | Founder & CEO
Your strategic partner has been where you are.
As a former Senior Program Officer at The Joyce Foundation, Jason managed over $60M in grants and guided the launch of the Chicago Roadmap. He has led national initiatives at Jobs for the Future and served as Chief Strategy & Partnerships Officer at ConnectED. He holds an MBA from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, a master's in education policy from Harvard University, and a bachelor's from Boston College.
But credentials alone don't make a great advisor. What sets Jason apart is his conviction that the social sector's most important leaders—especially leaders of color—deserve a strategic partner who understands their experiences in the sector. This conviction is the foundation of everything ClearImpact Advisors does.
Jason serves on the Chicago State University Board of Trustees and as the Board Chair for New Moms.
