Crews
What are Crews?
We like to think of Crews as our version of small groups. Each of our Journey Leadership Institute participants are split up into groups of 5-8 people. Each of those Crews are led by a Crew Leader. Journeyers meet with their Crews once a month in between the Journey workshops. During these Crew meetings, Journeyers are led into deeper conversations surrounding the content they learned in the monthly workshops.
What is a Crew Leader?
Our Crew Leaders have a dual-purpose as a facilitator and a mentor. Their role is to coordinate when/where their Crews meet as well as facilitate the conversation during the meeting.
How do I apply to be a Crew Leader?
In order to apply, you must be a graduate of the Journey Leadership Institute and be enrolled in the Journey Alumni Program. Please note, the application process and selection is extremely competitive, therefore not all applicants are guaranteed a spot as a Crew Leader.
What’s the commitment?
- Attend the Journey Commencement held in August.
- Facilitate eight monthly in-person meetings with your Crew. This translates to one meeting per month beginning in August and ending in March.
- Crew Leaders must be prepared for the meetings to last anywhere between 45-90 minutes.
- Attend the Milestone Celebration held in April.
