The method, Challenge-then-apply
Participants bring a real organisational challenge. The week becomes the structured environment to work it through, supported by expert faculty, live company visits, and the expertise of the cohort itself.
Sweetwaters Serena Camp, Ol Pejeta Conservancy.
Included: two nights, full board. The ecosystem made visible, and the space to think at altitude.
