How many times have you heard someone say that lifelong learning is important?

Well, today life long learning is no longer optional. It’s become essential in the new economic and social context we find ourselves in. The labor market is more competitive, technology is advancing exponentially, and our environment is changing before our eyes.

The need for us to all learn new skills and new tactics that take us to the next level (personally and professionally) is why I’m excited to be joined by some exceptional instructors at Maven.

Newsletters Incubator with John Gannon

I’ve known John for several years and if you are reading this, you might know that for years his VC and Startup careers newsletters are a must-read for anyone looking at a career in these fields. In this course, John will unveil his secrets for building an iconic newsletter that you are excited to write and keep up with based on his years of experience.

Launchpad for the next chapter of your career with Maria Wang-Faulkner

Are you unhappy professionally? Is something missing? It’s probably because you aren’t living your values and you don’t have a system for translating that into a fulfilling career yet. Maria can help. She’s been a startup founder, Googler, lawyer, management consultant, and internationally recognized expert. Maria is one of the people, I’ve had the pleasure to get to know that has a unique way of seeing the stages and chapters of our lives and guiding others to write their next epic chapter.

Exit Strategy Bootcamp with Touraj Parang

Every battle is won before it is fought and your startup should develop a strategy to maximize your exit opportunities well before you truly need one. Few people I have observed are as well qualified as Touraj Parang who has literally written the Book on how to do this based on his years as a serial entrepreneur (with 4 exits!) and 7-years as a VP of Corporate Development at GoDaddy. His course Exit Strategy Bootcamp will set you and your business up for success.

Mindful Leadership 21 Day Challenge with. Megan Deopker

Mindfulness is not “nice to have.” The most precious thing you have is your attention. How much do you feel you have left to spend on your biggest priorities?

It takes 21 days to change a habit! You will learn and integrate practices to build or deepen a daily meditation ritual for well-being, increased performance, and leadership growth. The accountability of an intimate peer group sets you up for success.

Megan is someone else I have gotten to know as a Maven instructor. She is a Meditation teacher and Mindful Leadership Coach that is grounded is what is practical in her course which will challenge you to unlock your full mind.

I’ve loved getting to know these Maven instructors as I built my own course. I can’t wait for you to explore these courses and more on Maven!
