I have reviewed the course website, application information, and consulted with my supervisor and/or alumni of adaptive leadership programs to determine that this is the right course for me at this time in my career and life.
If offered the opportunity to participate in this course, I will commit to the time required to actively engage in all three sessions (in-person and virtual) and intersession work (approximately 20%). I understand that teams meet regularly to complete assignments required for the course. I have discussed this time requirement with my supervisor, who supports my attendance and the associated work.
