Do More Good: Inspiring Lessons from Extraordinary People by Neil Ghosh is your guide to turning that desire to do more good into real-world impact—without burnout, confusion, or endless scrolling. Neil is a social impact strategist whose work bridges business, philanthropy, and civic leadership. This uplifting and service-oriented book blends memoir, mentorship, and leadership insight to answer a vital question: How can one person make a meaningful difference in today’s world? His Holiness the Dalai Lama wrote the foreword for the book.
Over the next two years, Mr. Ghosh stated:
"One of my goals for 2026 and 2027 is to travel to as many states as possible to share my two key messages:
1. Unity does not require uniformity—just a shared commitment to the common good.
2. Empathy is not a red-state value or a blue-state value. It’s an American value.
Along the way, I hope to meet and engage with as many people as possible — to listen, learn, and discover how individuals are doing more good in their own unique ways."
