Another gem forwarded to me from a friend. Please share with change makers you think could benefit from this program!
This is an all expenses-paid, multi-day intensive program for 10-20 visionary leaders to receive the resources/tools they need– ranging from branding, media relations, innovative technology, finance leads, leadership development, design impact, organization development– via networking with the world’s leading thought and practice leaders across health, education, technology, energy, peace and social justice, environment, human rights, economic development, media and telecom among other fields.
Fellows also present at the Pop!Tech conference (21-24 Oct 09 Camden, Maine), and gain access to funding, high visibility media/awards, mentoring and leadership development, and other resources to ensure socially beneficial innovation throughout the year and ahead.
To ensure diversity, at least one-third of the class will consist of participants from outside the U.S. and at least one-third will be 35 years of age or younger. Selection of Fellows will be made on rolling basis throughout 2009 (but early works better than later).
