Virtual Modules:

  • Modules 1 & 5: start on Wednesdays at 5:00 PM EDT and go until Saturday at 4:30 PM EDT
  • Modules 2-4: start on Thursday at 10:00 AM EDT and go until Saturday at 4:30 PM EDT

In-Person Modules:

  • Modules start on Thursdays at 3:00 PM EDT and go until Saturday at 4:30 PM EDT

Please note that session timings are subject to slight changes. We understand that unexpected circumstances may arise, and we reserve the right to adjust module dates as necessary. We will provide ample notice to all participants in such cases and appreciate your understanding and flexibility.

Each of module is thoughtfully designed to support senior leaders in balancing professional demands with immersive learning. Read more about our five modules and the key takeaways.
