“My 3 key learnings from ENBL Intensive were 1) the concept of whole person. Invest time there first, the rest will fall in to place. 2) up-leveling my communication style with execs and 3) building and fostering relationships across different functions”

— MAX WOOLF, Manager of Customer Success at Fountain

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Peer Cohorts > Alone

Peers: You’ll gain new perspectives, ideas, encouragement, feedback and support by meeting with the same group of committed peers regularly who are also learning how to be better leaders.

Experienced Mentors: You’ll get the guidance you need from experienced startup leaders who have the experience of failing miserably (many times) and succeeding gracefully…so you can learn faster and don’t make the same mistakes.

Interactive Learning > One way Lecture

Doing, Over & Over: You’ll spend 20% of the time learning new skills and 80% of the time practicing those skills, getting feedback and then try again and again until you “get it”.
Real Stuff That Matters: 100% of the learning content are the questions, challenges and successes that you and your peers are currently experiencing. Mentors will also share their experiences to provide perspectives.
Safe, Confidential Space: You’ll be in a private, non-judgmental space where you can bring your whole self and not worry about having the “perfect answer” or not practicing a new skill “perfectly”.

Continuous Feedback > Winging it

Actionable Feedback: You’ll gain confidence when you’re doing it “right” and know what adjustments to make when you’re doing it “not so right” thanks to the actionable feedback you’ll get from your peers and mentor.
Track Progress: In each session, you’ll be journaling your progress to see how far you’ve come and patterns you can act on.

FAQ

Tell me about the type of emerging leaders who will be in my peer cohort?

Vetted by ENBL staff who have successfully completed an application and interview process
Have 3 months to 3 years of management experience
View leadership as a way to empower their teams to achieve great things, not as a dictatorship sitting at the top of an ivory tower sipping on lattes (nothing wrong with lattes, btw)
Lead a team in a business function: marketing, sales, customer success, finance, people ops
Has at least 3 direct reports at a high growth startup under 100 employees
Starting to feel the pressure to meet rising expectations of their manager and teams
Fully committed to the learning process and supporting their peers

Who are Peer Mentorship Circles Intensive good for?

Tried traditional learning approaches (ie, books, e-learning, workshops) but hasn’t helped you grow fast enough
Prefer to be in small groups where you can get to know everyone
Appreciate learning from other people’s experiences that might be different than yours
Learn better with in-person training and structured curriculum
Need private 1:1 leadership coaching to bounce ideas, solve problems, get clarity, personal training

How much does Peer Mentorship Circles Intensive cost?

A better question is “What will it cost your startup or personal career, finances and life if you don’t develop the critical leadership skills now that will help you advance your career, have a greater impact on growing your startup and unlock the potential you know you have as a leader?”
We charge $4950 tuition to create a high quality and effective learning program for emerging leaders over 4 months
We offer scholarships for emerging leaders at non-profit startups

What is 1:1 Accountability?

You’ll be assigned a buddy from your cohort to meet twice (or more) a month. These sessions are an opportunity to get to know each other better, discuss and deepen your learning, give a timely pep talk (if someone is feeling down) and hold each other accountable.

What is 1:1 Coaching?

You’ll get to experience the same type of leadership coaching most founders and senior leaders get. Each month, you’ll meet with your ENBL Mentor where you’ll review topics and challenges that are top of mind for you. You’ll leave each session with specific strategies and tactics to help get you unstuck accelerate you to your goals.

Can I get my money back if ENBL isn’t right for me?

If you feel like you’re not getting much value from ENBL during your first month, we’ll be sad to see you go but we’ll refund 100% of your money.
