ham_bio_photo_impact252Hammond is a trusted and proven strategic business leader with over 10 years of experience wearing multiple hats . During his career, he has led large complex consulting projects, umpired in front of thousands of people, spoken at the largest church in the country, lead a week-long business consulting workshop with an interpreter in Brazil, and done a leadership development workshop for the UGA football team.  In addition to these accomplishments, he continues to focus on personal growth and recently became a certified John Maxwell Leadership Team Member.

Hammond grew up in Roswell, Georgia, and played football at Roswell High School where he was a 4-year football starter and awarded Roswell High School Rotary Leadership Award.  After high school, he went to the University of Georgia and graduated from the Honors Program with a BBA in Finance. He has always had a passion for leadership, business, and sports. Outside of business, Hammond loves spending time with his wife Leslie, family and friends.

As a former Big 4 business consultant, he has experience leading complex initiatives with a team of 20-30 members and reporting directly to an executive steering committee for both large and complex companies (Coco-Cola, Home Depot, Chick-fil-A, etc.) and small start-up companies (1.5M Insurance Company) across a vast array of industries.

While Hammond has spent most of his professional career transforming businesses, he has made an intentional decision to focus on positively impacting people’s lives by transforming their heart, mind, and body.  Over the past 5 years, Hammond has focused on leading the Breakout Training Team which is comprised of former college and professional athletes, to accomplish the goal to “Change the world one athlete at a time”.  This has now turned into a vocational mission for him.  Breakout Training has worked with over 1,000 athletes over the last 5 years by providing services such as speed & agility training, team building, and leadership development coaching.

Recently, Hammond joined Impact 2:52 and D-BAT Atlanta, a group of very talented and proven business leaders, to expand his influence both in business and with athletes.  Hammond is excited about the opportunity to focus on developing a unparalleled culture based upon christian principles and built upon 3 pillars- Unbelievable Attitude, Great Effort, and Pursuit of Excellence.  When asked how he will measure his success, he answers “by the number of customers who we can turn into employees to recycle our dream.  We want an unbreakable chain of people growing and loving people”.

Robin Merrill, Executive Partner

Robin is an Executive Partner with Impact 2:52 and leads our Professional Coaching and Leadership Development practice. As a Senior Associate with GiANT Worldwide she consults with individuals & executive teams to maximize their influence and effectiveness. Robin plays an important role with all our partner companies.

The GiANT Worldwide leadership design works because we use a “leadership language’’ that is a common, viral vocabulary, combined with “visual tools” that are simple, scalable and sustainable to produce transformation in personal growth and team effectiveness. This approach creates a “multiplication process” within a company so that everyone is informed, trained, coached or apprenticed.

We believe that the core to leadership development and life transformation is serving others and being a liberator to all those you have influence on by giving them high support and high challenge that comes from a heart of genuine love and concern.

Impacting and influencing those around me has been my ultimate goal in life. I have had the privilege of mentoring, discipling and coaching teenagers and young adults along with parents and families in order to promote healthier perspectives and better communication.

One of my most enjoyable experiences I have had throughout my life was while working for Emory Healthcare when I was a part of developing and implementing the Department of Care Transformation. During this time, I enjoyed integrating patients and families into significant conversations and decision making processes all throughout the Emory Healthcare system.

I am incredibly passionate about being intentional with relationships and partnering with organizations that invest in others, such as the two boards that I serve on: Faithful Servants Mission (Costa Rica & Panama) and Peace Preparatory Academy (Atlanta).
