Academy Leadership Needs!
Hi everyone! I hope you are well. As you know we recently launched a few of our academy courses and that means room for leadership seats! I wanted to make this post in an attempt to be transparent about the opportunities that are available within our academy.
We have openings for the 7 Cups academy mentor role for all academy programs.
- Leadership Development Program
- Group Leadership and Dynamics Development
- Content Development and Marketing
Apply to be an academy mentor here
Why should you become an academy mentor?
Regardless of the program, you choose to focus on, being an academy mentor allows you to support a program that provides free learning opportunities for all those who wish to pursue the skills associated with the program. You make a difference in the journey of our interns/trainees. A lot of the trainees/interns credit their mentors for having a good academy experience. You also get to present ideas/feedback that can help us improve the academy.
Priority given to
One thing that I want to note/emphasize is that first priority will be given to academy graduates (people who graduated from the program they want to be a mentor for) AND we especially want to onboard listeners who are not already in leadership roles but meet the requirements. This is to encourage more listeners to pursue leadership opportunities within the academy if they are interested and have the time.
That being said, you are still welcome to apply even if you have not an academy graduate and if you have a few leadership roles. Listeners who are already heavily involved in leadership roles will not be accepted. This for your own well-being.
We also prefer Adult-Teen Listeners as they can work with teens and adults or adults who are willing to become adult-teen listeners.
Required Traits
The academy mentor role requires high consistency and reliability. Our mentors help shape the experiences of our academy interns/trainees and their work is of utmost importance. Therefore we are seeking candidates who are committed to the cause and can provide consistency.
We will work with you to train you for the role, so it is okay if you do not have experience of the academy programs right now but you have the passion to serve in the role.
Opportunities for further service
As most of the academy programs are new, this calls for leadership level openings even on higher levels of dedication like mentor leader roles. All academy programs are currently seeking mentor leader(s).
There is no direct option of applying for the role as it requires experience as an academy mentor. All academy mentors will have the opportunity to pursue the role. They will be given tasks/duties to show their consistency and commitment and the best fits will be chosen for the role.
If you are interested in becoming a mentor leader for a specific program, at first you need to be an academy mentor so apply if you aren't yet one and once you are one, express your interest by reaching out to me and we will work on a plan together.
Please note that mentor leader is a role that requires prolonged dedication and does not happen in a short period of time. So patience and commitment are required.
Selected mentor leaders will have the opportunity to become academy ambassador based on their work, experience, and commitment to the program.
Please apply to be an academy mentor if you are interested! You are also welcome to share this post with your friends who may be a good fit! Let's work together to strengthen our academy.
