Program Benefits

  • Gain the skills, tools, and methodologies to effectively co-lead transformational systems change through a social innovation & entrepreneurship framework.

  • Learn how to frame complex, interconnected, transdisciplinary challenges and effectively address them through a “transformational systems change” framework that links technical “community-based points of intervention” with adaptive problem-solving. 

  • Be connected, inspired, and empowered as part of a community of diverse changemakers interconnected by a set of shared values and a common purpose.

  • Experience the magic of being immersed in another culture’s “living classroom” and the power of a collaborative, high-impact, learner-centered approach to activating human potential.

  • Understand how mental models represent a critical leverage point in facilitating systems change and how you see yourself—and show up—as an empowered adaptive leader and changemaker. A deeper awareness of—and confidence in—your adaptive leadership potential, a new way of seeing yourself and the world, a freshly-authored story of your journey, and the inspiration to act boldly.

  • Deepen your sense of empathy, both as a lens for seeing the world and as an approach to understanding complex problems from the perspective of those experiencing them.

  • Find profound inspiration and hope in the powerful journeys and stories of local changemakers and develop a deeper appreciation for your own changemaking journey while discovering the ability to move beyond your limiting beliefs of the past and re-author your own story as you collaborate on a revitalized collective “Story of Us and Now.”
