- New Fellows Will Join a Community of Over 1,000 Members, Supported by 20 Enterprise Partners, and Will Have Access to a New and Exclusive Learning Sprint Designed by Duke Corporate Education
Today, FORTUNE announced that individuals can now apply to become FORTUNE Connect Fellows, members of the premier leadership learning community launched by FORTUNE in October 2020. Until now, FORTUNE Connect has been available exclusively to mid-career professionals who were hand-selected by their employers for being high performers on the executive track. Since launch, FORTUNE Connect has grown to a community of over 1,000 members, supported by 20 enterprise partners who have entrusted Connect with their star employees’ career development and enrichment.
This opening of applications coincides with FORTUNE Connect’s relaunch on the Mighty Networks platform, allowing Fellows to network and collaborate freely with each other right alongside the learning sprints, original programming, and award-winning journalism within the exclusive Connect portal. Fellows now also have access to the first learning sprint designed by Duke Corporate Education exclusively for FORTUNE Connect. Duke CE’s debut learning sprint, “Purpose Driven Leadership,” will be taught by Michael Chavez, and will teach Fellows to use their sense of individual purpose in their roles as members of larger organizations in order to become stronger, impactful, and authentic leaders.
