establishing the notion of
effectiveness in social change
Hi,
I'm Gidi Kadosh
We need to replace the question of whether something helps others, with the question of how much it helps.
This old way of thinking creates a misguided world in which the charities with the best marketing win over those with the highest impact.
A world where corporate social responsibility is driven by PR, not impact.
A world where academics, or even social entrepreneurs, aren’t incentivized to choose opportunities with higher impact.
I made it my mission to change that.
Initiatives
VIVID - Effective Personal Growth
Today, I’m focused on bringing the notion of effectiveness and evidence into the field of personal growth.
I’ve recently completed a seed round for VIVID, a social startup I cofounded with Dr. Tal Ben-Shahar.
Our platform helps the audience members of personal growth experts (whether via social media, public speaking, organizational consulting) to personalize and apply their advice, and persist with it.

Effective Altruism Israel
Over the past years, I've built a charity that focuses on the practical aspects of "Effective Altruism" - a movement that develops and promotes practical tools and advice about prioritization in social action.
As its CEO, I helped Effective Altruism Israel grow from a small group of 6 volunteers into an established organization with 8 employees and thousands in its community, raise over 2 million dollars, launch academic courses at Tel-Aviv University and programs changing the face of the Israeli nonprofit sector, led to the launch of 6 large scale ($300k+) organizations and projects and consultancy calls, and give over a hundred lectures, workshops, and meetups to help Israelis increase their social impact.

Speaking
Over the past years, I've been invited to speak at several global conferences in the US, UK, Eastern Europe, and the Far East, and given dozens of lectures on impact entrepreneurship, building an impact-driven society, effective personal growth, community building, and user experience.
I view speaking as an important way to make a change - Don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re considering booking a talk or a workshop on any of the above.

My System & Worldview
My life & work principles
After more than a decade of personal research into effective personal growth and effective work methods, I'm sharing my attempt to simplify all good strategies (whether in personal growth or in business growth) - into a simple, straightforward framework.
I also share how this framework stands as the basis for my life & work principles, and what tools I use to put these principles into practice.
