Program structure
Generalization
Fellows see the whole map first, so their choices are informed.
Personalization
At least 3 prepared 40-minute one-on-one sessions per fellow. Cohort 2 averaged about 5 one-on-one sessions per fellow. Fellows choose mentors; mentors set availability. Prepared, not random.
Immersion
Fellows then step into real rooms together, with the direction they have built.
Moments from past cohorts
Real sessions, visits, mentorship, and reflections from the people who experienced Cohorts 1 and 2.
