ABOUT THE PURSUIT OF 𝑥The Pursuit of 𝑥 is a program designed for 18-25 year olds, and is an invitation to grow and cultivate "human capabilities" - skills that cannot be replaced by automation.
In the Pursuit of 𝑥, we will embark on a journey of self-discovery to figure out what your unique ‘𝑥’ is. This journey involves 6 interactive and thought-provoking workshops, that involve learning how to truly know yourself, how to lead yourself, and how to lead others in an authentic way regardless of what position you are in. |
