Acumen Leadership Essentials Pre-Course Launch

We'll preview +Acumen's next free six-week course, "Leadership Essentials."

About Acumen and SF+Acumen

What's the Leadership Essentials course about (and not about)?

The content in this course was developed based on more than seven
years of experience training Acumen’s Global and Regional Fellows. Our
six-week beginner-level course is brief compared to Acumen’s year-long
Fellows programs so you will get just a taste of Acumen’s leadership
training. Our focus is on leadership. We will cover some of the basics
of patient capital investing in one module, but we will not go into
this in-depth. We'll touch on the impact investing and social
enterprise sector, but we will not map out the space, nor will we
compare/contrast Acumen’s work with others in the space.

At this meetup, you'll have the chance to find and sign up your team
to learn essential leadership skills. This is a great opportunity to
engage your community, and a great course for people new to Acumen’s
work and the social impact space in general.
