IDEAS
ROUNDTABLES
PROGRAM
The IDEAS Roundtables Program is designed to provide a dynamic and structured space for Next-Gen IDEAS leaders to come together, thoughtfully process challenges and opportunities, and support one another. These groups:
​
-
Are led by IDEAS Generation facilitators to ensure productive dialogue
-
Are specially curated to make interactions personal, intimate, psychologically safe, and valuable
-
Meet virtually every other week for two-hour sessions
-
Have had massively successful results - see the video reviews below!​
This Roundtables session will have several cohorts and time slots available! This means more capacity (we maxed out last semester) and also more specific content that had been requested by past participants. You spoke, and we listened!
The Roundtables Program includes facilitated practice workshopping IDEAS issues and the opportunity to support a nonprofit with a real-time IDEAS challenge. Cohorts will be curated based on availability, prior experience advancing IDEAS values, and stated goals of applicants.
DETAILS
Next session coming in 2024.

#GOALS OF THE ROUNDTABLES PROGRAM
Our Roundtables Program is intended to simultaneously build a community of practice and support during these unprecedented times and provide a space for collaboration to collectively advance social change grounded in IDEAS by:
-
Fostering connection and community so that practitioners who are otherwise isolated in their day-to-day work have a support network and place to recharge emotionally with professional and generational peers
-
Creating opportunities to generate insights about how to utilize these times of hybrid work and uncertainty as turning points for new possibilities in workplaces and communities
-
Providing space for sharing/exchanging your work with peers to elevate new voices and perspectives in the IDEAS field
-
Workshopping real-world challenges with the group for feedback and input, and in so doing, to co-create innovative ideas and approaches
-
Culminating in ‘IDEAS hack-a-thons’ wherein next-gen led organizations present cohort members with timely IDEAS-challenges as mini-case competitions to apply learnings while driving social impact
