Feedback and performance coaching

The backbone of the accelerator are monthly mentoring calls from industry insiders who are matched to you and your needs. Every call has a written follow-up and clear next steps for you.

 Each month you will also get a session with a performance coach. They will help you translate what you are learning into action and lasting change for you personally and professionally.

Insight from industry icons

After each call, you will receive tailored content specific to your challenges and goals, to support you with what you need to do to take the next step forward.

You will also have access to an exclusive video library, featuring insight and advice from industry insiders who are working and succeeding in the industry today.

Your brand and career ahead
