Hi everyone,
I wanted to let you know about this incredible opportunity to get firsthand experience with learning how to create scalable change, through a non-credit class by the Beeck Center. Check out the attached syllabus! Definitely consider applying, you will get to hear from great speakers, have a chance to have an impact with a real client, and make awesome connections.
On another note, if I didn't get to see you before leaving, I hope you have a wonderful, relaxing break and return pumped for the spring semester! I'll be missing you and the Hilltop from abroad :)
Best,
Cherie

Tomorrow’s leaders need training for creative problem solving. To be effective, new leaders will need to know how to disrupt assumptions, challenge conventional business models, and define new frontiers of value creation.
Futures Fellows will work directly with a client to address a social problem. Students will learn about how to approach public problems, research other models and solutions, and work with the client and mentors to provide actionable recommendations to clients.
Readings and lectures will include information about the latest tools to achieve social impact in a cross-sector approach. This includes design thinking, social innovation, and storytelling. Fellows will meet seven times in the spring semester, on Thursday evenings from 6-8pm, with lab workshops in between. Upon completion of the fellowship, students will receive a Fellow recognition note on their transcript (subject to pending approval).
