Why You, Why Now?

Perspective

Feeling stuck inside an echo chamber? Gain fresh ideas and see your toughest challenges through new lenses by exchanging insights with diverse leaders from outside your organization. The cohort environment allows you to confidentially share and receive valuable feedback, helping you approach problems with renewed creativity.

Career Growth

Ready to progress in your career but lack access to senior level development experiences tailored to mission-driven organizations? The Aspire Cohorts are designed to lead you through a collaborative experience to discover exactly what you need in order to advance. Tap into the confidence you need to take the next step.

Breakthough

Sometimes the biggest hurdle is your own perspective. The cohort helps you identify limiting beliefs and develop strategies to overcome them, unlocking your full potential for breakthrough moments in your leadership and organization. Spark innovation with your cohort by brainstorming solutions and developing creative approaches to long-standing problems.

Belonging

Diverse and innovative leaders often feel alone. Joining an Aspire Cohort connects you to a lasting network of peers who share your passion for social change and leadership. The collective wisdom and diverse experiences of your fellow cohort members becomes an invaluable resource for your leadership journey long after the cohorts formal conclusion.

The Basics

Aspire Cohorts are open to any established leader compelled by mission-driven work who aspires to grow.

Each cohort is considered a closed group of six members.

Each of the five cohort sessions are conducted via Zoom.

Each session is 90 minutes.

This is a great opportunity for professional development. Many of our members are reimbursed by their employer. Talk to your supervisor.
