Global Good x Amani

What Global Good x Amani does

Global Good x Amani is a private impact consulting firm formed in September 2024 through the merger of Global Good Consulting and Amani Institute, operating as the impact consulting arm of The Global Good Fund ecosystem and governed under Virginia law. The firm delivers customized consulting services to companies, nonprofits, foundations, and governmental and intergovernmental organizations, with a core service portfolio spanning Leadership and Capacity Development, Organizational Growth and Effectiveness, Convening Design and Facilitation, and Impact Strategy and Organizational Design. It complements these services with cohort-based programs, including the Post-Graduate Certificate in Social Innovation Management, the Leadership for Growth (L4G) program, and the Women Leading Change (WLC) program implemented in partnership with the Sasamani Foundation. Operations are run by a distributed team across Kenya, India, Colombia, and the United States, with the firm reporting 500+ customized client engagements, 13,000+ professionals trained, and coverage of 70+ countries.

The firm's approach is positioned as hands-on, adaptive, and rooted in experiential learning rather than proprietary technology, and the technology section of source materials explicitly states there is no underlying platform. Methodologies center on human-centered facilitation, executive coaching, fellowship-style cohort learning, organizational diagnostics, and design of learning experiences such as retreats and workshops. Select clients include the Rockefeller Foundation, WWF Kenya, Co-impact, Microsoft, Oxfam, UNHCR, Tara Climate Foundation, GIZ, WIPO, Breitling, DHL, Mercy Corps AgriFin, and the Clinton Health Access Initiative, spanning philanthropy, conservation, humanitarian relief, climate, luxury/ESG, and government development verticals.

Global Good x Amani generates revenue through professional services engagements, with pricing structured across four project-budget tiers from under $10,000 to above $100,000 and the option of multi-year contracts. Client acquisition is consultative and inside-sales driven, primarily through a website inquiry form that captures organization type, budget range, and timeline, supplemented by referrals from the SIM alumni community, partner networks such as Sasamani Foundation and Global Good Fund, and sector platforms. Carrie Rich, co-founder of The Global Good Fund and WSJ-bestselling author of Impact The World, serves as CEO.
