Winning an election is just the beginning. The real challenge—and opportunity—comes after.

At Elected Impact, we believe that leadership doesn’t stop on Election Day—it starts. While countless resources exist to help candidates run and win, there’s almost nothing to help them govern effectively once they do. That’s where we come in.

Elected Impact equips local elected officials with the practical strategies, insights, and support you need to serve with excellence. From navigating policy decisions and communicating effectively to engaging constituents and making a real impact, we provide clear, actionable guidance—because no leader should have to figure it out alone.

Why This Matters

Public trust in institutions is at an all-time low, and government is no exception. Yet at the local level, elected officials like you—our neighbors, colleagues, and community members—have a unique opportunity to restore faith in governance. When local leaders serve with integrity, transparency, and effectiveness, you don’t just make better decisions—you help rebuild public confidence in democracy itself.

Strong leadership at the local level creates stronger communities. That’s why Elected Impact exists: to ensure local leaders aren’t just elected but are empowered to lead with purpose, govern with confidence, and make a lasting impact.

You stepped up to serve. Elected Impact is here to help you succeed.

From the perspective of a former three-term alderman in Manchester, NH, Elected Impact shares practical strategies and actionable insights in three main categories so you can serve with confidence and make a lasting impact:

• Communication—In public service, as in life, so much comes down to how well  or poorly we communicate and interact with others. Discover new and not-so-new ways of sharing information with, and receiving information from, constituents, colleagues, and others in the community.
• Constituent Services—You take care of your constituents, they’ll take care of you. Learn how to best respond to the needs—stated and unstated—facing those you represent and how to wow them in the process.
• Governing—It’s what the voters elect us to do. Learn how to best work with your fellow elected officials, as well as staff, residents, and other community stakeholders to actually get stuff done.

Now, more than ever, with democracy itself increasingly under attack, we need leaders like you. We need you to serve at a level of excellence that will help to restore our constituents’ faith that government can not just function, but can actually make their lives better—one ward, one district, one city, one county at a time.
