THRIVE: Lead With the World in Mind

The THRIVE program is for leaders with a minimum of seven years of leadership experience. We welcome purpose-driven individuals from diverse sectors and backgrounds who are looking to make an impact on society, their organizations, or their team. 

We aim to have 20-30 participants in each class. We use a social learning platform to connect all participants online, and you will be paired with a classmate for peer coaching throughout the program. During our virtual sessions, you will mainly work in small groups of 3-4 participants to ensure a deeper level of learning and engagement. 

To start the selection process, please request an invitation. Once you have submitted the form, our admissions team will be in contact with you within one week to schedule a call to discuss your application and get a better sense of who you are as a leader and what you would like to get out of the program. This is also the opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the program. If you are accepted into the program, the admissions team will let you know within 48 hours after your admissions call.

The time commitment varies depending on the week. Weeks 1, 5, and 9 are immersive learning weeks. During these weeks, you should expect to commit 15-18 hours of your time in both synchronous and asynchronous activities (online and offline). The remaining weeks of the program require a time commitment of 3-5 hours per week of both synchronous and asynchronous activities (online and offline).

Don’t expect to be in front of a screen for the duration of this program! At THNK, we pride ourselves on our unique approach to remote learning that connects you to yourself and the world around you.
