About Ben Pyne

Ben is an independent advisor to philanthropies, social entrepreneurs, nonprofits, and others devoted to growing their impact and solving hard problems. Thanks to a diverse portfolio career with the Skoll Foundation, Global Health Corps, and Deloitte Consulting, Ben is a nimble generalist and quick study who thrives in ambiguity, thinks creatively, and holds a high bar for impact and rigor. Ben loves to build: partnerships across different cultures and interests, pipelines and investment practices for philanthropists to accelerate their giving, strategies for doers to maximize their impact and storytelling, business case analyses to take better decisions, and genuine connection and community with others driven by shared purpose and personal vocation. When not using any of the above buzzwords, you might find Ben exploring the woods with his family and his dog, trying an overly ambitious art or photography project, or playing any(!) game. Please feel free to reach out about any (or all) of the above!
