What leads corporations to greater profitability while maintaining
a high level of social accountability? And what drives non-profits
toward greater levels of sophistication and capacity building?
We believe the answers can be found in a word called
‘afya’.
In Swahili, “afya” means health & well-being—not
just physical or external health but a fundamental state of mind.
Afya is a driving force at Amani Global—our standard
for every decision. We ask ourselves: ‘Will this encourage
or discourage the systemic well-being of our clients, our company, our community?’
We’d like to introduce you to our “10 tenets
of corporate afya”--the health principles that guide our culture.
What defines your culture? Can you articulate the principles that
guide your organization?
This is not just an exercise. It’s a fundamental
state of mind that guides decision-making. It would be our privilege
to help your organization identify its “tenets of afya”.
