About Kim Howell

I help organizations connect the dots between strategy, meaning, and behavior—using communications, engagement design, and innovation to advance purpose, culture, and real-world impact.Over 15+ years, I’ve built my career at the intersection of storytelling, people strategy, and transformative engagement. I’ve led initiatives that elevate brand and organizational voice, design experiences that strengthen connection, and shape communications that drive alignment across teams and audiences. What ties all of it together isn’t title—it’s the work of moving people toward change that matters.In my current role leading the Innovation & Design Studio at Eventus WholeHealth, I’m focused on translating enterprise strategy into human-centered communications, engagement systems, and thought leadership that amplify organizational vision. I partner with executive leaders, clinical teams, and cross-functional partners to design experiences and narratives that cut through complexity and make strategy feel actionable—whether through multimedia storytelling, learning experiences, or high-impact engagement frameworks.But my work isn’t defined by any single organization. Across roles in strategic communications, engagement leadership, learning design, and culture strategy, I bring:A keen strategic lens—seeing beyond tactics to the underlying human behaviors and organizational levers that drive changeStory-forward communication—crafting messages and mediums that resonate deeply and endureInclusive leadership and design thinking—bringing people together to co-create solutions that scaleOperational discipline—balancing creativity with rigor, measurement, and impactI’m energized by opportunities to advance mission, ignite engagement, and amplify voices—whether that’s launching a new content platform, reframing an organizational narrative, scaling internal culture practices, or connecting cross-sector leaders around shared purpose.My approach is rooted in authenticity, curiosity, and results. I believe that great communication isn’t just heard—it inspires action.If you care about innovation in people strategy, healthcare transformation, culture engagement, or storytelling that moves communities, let’s connect and explore what’s next.
