Ryan Miemczyk
Director of Research
I have worked within the Health and Social Care sector for over 17 years and has a proven track record of delivering outcomes at both strategic and operational levels in complex political and multi-stakeholder environments. My experience has been gained across the public, private and charity sectors, with roles including the NSPCC, where I led projects for the prevention of sexual abuse from service development through to implementation and evaluation.
Since the completion of his MSc in Forensic Psychology in 2009, I have held positions as a Research Manager for the Scottish Government, before moving into psychological assessment and service development.
During my career, I have also gained qualifications in project management, operational excellence, forensic risk assessment, psychometric testing, and become a government accredited researcher.
I am now the Director of Research at a social impact consultancy. Where we help organisations better understand, measure and maximise their social impact.
We've worked with over 90 charities, social enterprises and socially conscious organisations including the likes of Help for Heroes, The Felix Project, Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust, the Motor Neurone Disease Association, Barclays, Shell, and CadetGas.
We use simple, impact first, and creative methodologies to get the people we work with to a point of live data visualisations, which help them to become more data led.
Some of the successes we've had include some of our clients using their new purpose and impact measurement frameworks, and live data visualisations to double their incomes.
We believe that the days of historical reporting on quarterly and yearly impact are over and that live data visualisation is the key to getting immediate feedback on the success of an organisation's strategy for achieving purpose.
Coming from a sporting background, the immediacy of feedback for improvement is something I think the entire sector can learn from and use and this is what I would like to talk about more!
In my spare time I also sits as the Chair of Trustees for the Manchester Young Lives charity, a trustee for the YMCA Manchester, and play for the England Touch Rugby team.
