Good Works Consulting

What Good Works Consulting does

Good Works Consulting, LLC is a privately held boutique management consulting firm founded in 2019 by Fran Benjamin and incorporated in Minnesota. The firm specializes in organizational effectiveness and DEI advisory, delivering a portfolio of core services that include organizational and culture assessments, strategy and change-management consulting, leadership development and training, executive coaching, and on-call advisory support. Its stated differentiation is operating at the intersection of organizational effectiveness, social justice/equity practice, operator know-how, and evidence-based research — combining former senior HR and People leaders (drawn from GRAIL, Airbnb, 23andMe, Twitter, Best Buy, Stitch Fix, Nike, Roche, Genentech, Deloitte, and others) with organizational psychologists and data practitioners. Service delivery is relationship-led: engagements begin with discovery calls, are priced via custom proposals (no public tiered pricing), and are delivered on-site, virtually, or in hybrid formats, with executive coaching frequently paired with consulting engagements.

The firm's client roster is enterprise-skewed and logo-rich, spanning Fortune 500 technology, life sciences, retail, pharmaceutical, healthcare, and consumer brands (e.g., Airbnb, Nike, Best Buy, Twitter, Roche, Genentech, Bayer, Cargill, Coach, Medtronic), alongside government (City of Minneapolis) and education (UC Berkeley, UCD Health) clients. Since founding, the firm claims to have served 102+ clients with 15,000+ program participants and an 87% repeat-client rate, with engagements framed around measurable outcomes such as a self-reported 5% improvement in employee engagement scores. Beyond bespoke advisory, the firm operates Good Works Lab — a learning platform built on LearnWorlds — which extends its delivery into asynchronous leadership development content. The firm has no disclosed funding, no M&A history, no proprietary technology platform, and no public pricing; revenue is not disclosed and headcount is reported in the 1–10 range with delivery capacity distributed across the United States, Norway, Germany, and the Philippines.
