Impact Roadmap™


The Impact Roadmap™ toolkit is designed for creative leaders who know their work makes a difference but struggle to explain that difference clearly.


Developed with the field, grounded in practice.


McNeil Creative Enterprises developed the Impact Roadmap™ through years of work alongside artists, cultural organizations, funders, and arts leaders.

The framework draws on MCE’s evaluation practice, direct experience in the field, and feedback from arts and cultural leaders who helped strengthen its clarity, relevance, and usefulness.


It offers a practical, flexible approach grounded in the realities of arts and cultural work—not a one-size-fits-all model of impact.
