HEAR FROM OUR ALUMNI

Yesha Bavishi

Design Researcher

“Already I am getting my opinion across with more confidence. I am speaking more confidently and the responses I’ve been getting are more positive than I expected! This course really helped me put myself forward in talking about things I believe in.”

Merida Miller

“For me, it's always important that I can leave a course with tools and actionable next steps. Not only do I feel inspired to do so, I feel fully prepared to start! I'd highly recommend this course to anyone looking to identify their personal voice and wants to start driving the conversation.”

Tim Polaszek,

Environmental Consultant

“I managed to hone in on the key elements that drive a lot of what I do. It helped me make a clearer representation of myself and my goals. The fact that it was split over different modules really helped me digest some of the high-level vision and mission work, and I left with a clear picture in my mind.” Tim Polaszek, Environmental Consultant, Wolf’s Company
