The ALF Fellows Program
The year-long ALF Fellowship is designed to strengthen Fellows’ capacity to address collective societal issues collaboratively and build a strong leadership network to mobilize for positive change in the community. Fellows are introduced to adaptive leadership concepts and unique experiences in nature that instill curiosity, deepen their life journey, and develop a connection to broader humanity.
HOW IT WORKS
Elevate your leadership journey, cultivating adaptive leadership skills to drive meaningful change and nurture strong, dynamic communities. The Fellows program year moves students through three levels that enables the co-creation of new possibilities.
How You Benefit
Gain new perspectives and innovative solutions to challenges
Through collaborative experiences, mindfulness and nature, thought-provoking dialogues, and deep self-reflection, you’ll develop a toolkit and the language needed to tackle issues from new angles and drive positive change in your community, organization, and beyond.
Develop self-awareness and the tools necessary to navigate the complexities of leadership
Leadership is risky. You’ll develop the skills needed to excel as a thoughtful, adaptive, and impactful leader, empowering yourself and others to make a lasting difference in your community and the world.
Connect with the ALF network
Becoming an ALF Fellow opens doors to our robust ecosystem of connections and resources. You’ll have the opportunity to tap into this extensive network, providing a fertile ground for collaboration, ongoing mentorship, and the exchange of ideas.
