HISTORY
Recognizing the nonprofit community’s growing need for practical assistance with outcome measurement, Laurel Molloy founded Innovations Quantified in 1999. 

Applying her background in social research and her firsthand knowledge of the realities of the nonprofit sector, Laurel positioned IQ as a primary resource on outcome measurement to organizations in her then local community of metro Atlanta. 

With current headquarters in New York City, IQ continues its tradition of providing practical assistance to a now international network of clients in the arts, education, health and human services, funding, organizational development, and services to women and youth. 

Outcome measurement remains a cornerstone of IQ, but today that same ability to translate complex ideas into practical strategies is used to guide organizations through the development and implementation of other new programs and initiatives.
 
LAUREL MOLLOY, FOUNDER & CHIEF CONSULTANT
As founder and Chief Consultant of Innovations Quantified, Laurel serves as its backbone and driving force.  Her passion, attention to detail, and commitment to quality prevail in every aspect of the business.
 
Laurel began her life as a public servant at age 10, when she organized a neighborhood event and donated all of the proceeds ($25!) to charity.  Since then, in addition to her work as a consultant, she has served in direct service and supervisory roles across the country – from rural Vermont to urban Atlanta and numerous points in between.  
 
Never one to shy away from a challenge or limit herself to just one cause, Laurel is constantly striving to address the needs she perceives in the community.  As a volunteer, she has done everything from start a girls’ soccer league in an inner-city neighborhood to help connect New York City residents with post-9/11 relief efforts.  She sees IQ as yet another way to make a positive impact.
 
Laurel’s hands-on experience and passion for public service are complimented well by her formal education.  She holds an MPA in Nonprofit Management from New York University and a BA in Sociology and Women’s Studies from the College of the Holy Cross.  
 
For her academic and professional endeavors, she has earned numerous awards, including the Robert F. Wagner Award for Public Service, the Thomas Imse Award for Dedication to Social Change, and the NYU Alumnae Award for Academic Excellence and Community Service.
