A program. Four to eight weeks.
Most professional development happens in a room and stays there. This doesn't.
Participants start with data about themselves — values, strengths, and how they actually prefer to solve problems. Then they build three different versions of the next five years using the Odyssey Plan, an exercise from Stanford's Design Your Life. Not the path they're already on. Three real alternatives, each with a timeline and an honest cost.
From there it narrows. Everything gets distilled into a prioritized list of the people and organizations worth their attention — and then they go talk to them. Informational interviews. Job shadows. Real conversations with people already doing the thing they're considering.
That last part is the point. Insight without action is a good afternoon. This program is built so nobody finishes it without having done something in the world.
Where it fits
Universities and workforce programs preparing people for what's next. Companies running internal mobility or leadership pipelines. Any group of people facing a transition they haven't named yet.
Built originally for business students. Adapts to veterans, career changers, and mid-career professionals figuring out what they want.
