BUT WHO REALLY BEARS THE COST?
Investors still win as the “risk” is baked into their portfolio strategy.
Founders (and their families) lose a chunk of their life savings and incur a huge opportunity cost in the prime career-building stage of their life.
Communities lose $billions in economic opportunity through job insecurity, workforce mobility, the lack of emerging leaders, and philanthropy.
Connecting founders with experienced, effective mentors – and enhancing the effectiveness of those mentors so knowledge and experience transfers happen more quickly and relationships are more productive.
Helping founders build stronger boards of directors to ensure they are better able to identify and serve the true needs of the company.
Providing leadership training to Founders and their teams to help them attract, motivate, and get the most from top talent in challenging labor markets.
Giving community leaders access to tools and programs to help them build more local success by accessing global resources.
Insightful research
Interactive skill-building
Community conversations
Curated relationships
We partner with accelerators, angel investing groups, and early-stage VCs to make mentorship more impactful, boards more effective, and founders more capable.
Our research and training focus exclusively on those things. We leave the core of founder education and capital raising to partners so we can concentrate on building stronger human capital solutions with no conflicts or redundancies.
Here you’ll find no celebrity mentors spouting solutions in a 20-minute meeting. Instead, we offer hundreds of incredibly experienced people around the world you may never have heard of. People who have all built very successful businesses, and who are drawn to offer their expertise and connections within our unique culture and approach rooted in:
Our efforts plus your donation works to build more sustainable startup companies in communities around the world and in your backyard for generations to come.
covers the costs of one startup going through our foundational Mastery program, or one mentor participating in our “live fire” training and feedback sessions.
enables another training module in our advanced curriculum library for founders (I.e. leadership, conflict resolution, negotiation skills, etc.)
enhances our tools to help match founders with the right mentors around the world.
helps fund our research into new techniques to pragmatically and effectively unlock the “trapped” value of human capital.
expands our outreach to more communities around the world to help ensure that founders from anywhere all have access to top-tier mentorship.
