The Global Good Fund Fellowship is for innovators, entrepreneurs, and leaders of for-profit and non-profit social impact organizations.

Ideal entrepreneurs are dedicated to their own self-discovery and development. They must hold a full-time leadership position at their social enterprise, which has been operational for ideally two to five years.
- 360° Assessment
Fellows take GGF’s proprietary leadership assessment and gain a panoramic view of their leadership skills.
- Annual Summit (in-person)
Fellows participate in an Annual Global Good Fund Summit each spring. Our summit is a 4-day curated leadership development experience that combines training, networking and bonding among Fellows, alumni and valued members of the GGF ecosystem.
- Executive Coaching (Virtual)
Fellows use the results of the 360 assessment as a starting point to work with their executive coach and create a personalized Leadership Development Plan.
- Targeted Funds
Fellows receive a $10,000 grant to explicitly be used on their leadership development.
- Business Mentorship (Virtual)
Fellows are matched with a C-suite business executive, who serves as a mentor, and receives intensive 1:1 support to help them successfully grow their business.
- Peer and Subject Matter Expert Network
Over the course of 12 months, Fellows are part of a global cohort of leaders positively impacting the world. GGF facilitates intentional opportunities for Fellows and alumni to engage and learn from each other as well as a variety of industry experts so that they can be best equipped to address complex challenges.
