A collaborative consultancy for driving meaningful change

Our collective future depends on building better systems to support more people and the planet today.

At Good Work Group, we specialize in building systems-change strategies and frameworks that help our partners make an impact.

As a collective of researchers, strategists, and writers, we work to equip leaders and teams with the critical insights, strategies, and communications tools they need to boost organizational effectiveness, maximize their mission impact, and advance racial, social, health, and environmental justice at every system level.


Our unique approach to advancing meaningful systems change

Working together to shift policies, practices, and perspectives around today’s most critical issues

At Good Work Group, we see our most pressing issues not as isolated problems that need quick fixes, but as opportunities to fundamentally reimagine and reshape our systems to be more just, equitable, and effective for all people.

Our commitment to meaningful change goes beyond single policy victories. Our focus is on building effective, deliberate strategies to transform systems and shift the dominant structures and narratives that hold inequities in place.

Our approach to supporting organizations in driving meaningful change is both collaborative and holistic. It’s informed by research, valuable insights from the community and key stakeholders, and more than 12 years of experience crafting public policy initiatives, narrative change strategies, and pivotal advocacy campaigns.

We are honored to work alongside leading change-makers and advocates to develop effective strategies and communications for systems change.
