Day One: September 3
Values Excavation
9 am - 4 pm with a lunch break
The Becoming You Methodology is based on the premise that our purpose lies at the intersection of our values, our aptitudes, and the areas of economic growth that call us emotionally and intellectually.
On the first day of the NYC course, Professor Welch will work closely with participants to excavate their core values, deploying five profound self-discovery exercises, and culminating with the use of The Values Bridge, a proprietary assessment tool designed specifically for those undertaking the Becoming You process.Day Two: September 4
Aptitude Inventory and Areas of Opportunity Survey
9 am - 4 pm with a lunch break
Based on testing done prior to class, as well as in class exercises and discussion, participants will arrive at a comprehensive awareness of their unique strengths, as well as an understanding of which kinds of jobs and industries are the best match for them.
In the second portion of the day, participants will learn about functional company, industry and economic mega trends. In our final hour together on Day Two, participants will work in small groups to prepare a first draft of the Becoming You “Area of Transcendence” analysis. Getting close!Day Three: September 5
Presentations and Concluding Remarks
10 am - 5 pm with a lunch break
The first half of the day will be the culmination of the Becoming You methodological process, with participants creating their new roadmaps to the future, and sharing them with the group for feedback and encouragement. Professor Welch plays a very active role in this portion of the intensive, helping students hone and operationalize their plans
Professor Welch will then give a talk entitled, “The Four Rs of No Matter What,” a reflection on the qualities that will nurture and embolden our authentic lives through their many chapters. The Intensive will conclude with a Q&A session and an optional get-together with Professor Welch at a nearby rooftop restaurant.
Faq
- Who is this program for? People just starting out in their careers, or mid-career professionals who are hoping to pivot?AHow about yes and yes, and everyone in between? The power of the Becoming You methodology is that it is a lifelong tool that meets you exactly where you are in your career journey.
Professor Welch has taught Becoming You to individuals from 18 to 80; the course is designed to be inclusive – and life-transforming – whether you are thisclose to your purpose, and searching for it on what feels like a distant horizon. - What can I expect to get out of the three-day Becoming You program?AYou will emerge from the program with a comprehensive list of your core values, insight into your unique aptitudes, and a new understanding of the economic opportunities ahead. Perhaps most importantly, the goal of the program is for each participant to create a personalized, customized “Area of Transcendence” roadmap to their future.
In short, you should expect to come out of the Intensive with a clearer, richer, hope-provoking answer to the question, “What should I do with my life.” - How does the Intensive compare to Professor Welch’s course at NYU?AIn sheer number of hours of instruction – 21 total – it is about the same. However, the work is very accelerated, and some homework assignments have been eliminated from the process. Finally, at NYU, Becoming You students undergo a 5-week 360- Feedback process which is (naturally) shorter and less complex in the Intensive version.
It is important to note that Professor Welch’s NYU course is only available to students enrolled at the university. - How much access will we have to Professor Welch?AProfessor Welch will teach the entire program and very much enjoys interacting with participants.
- What is included in the cost of the program?AThe $1,800 cost includes instruction, as well as all learning materials and tests. It does not include meals and housing.
- Where is the program taking place?AOn the NYU campus.
- Do you recommend taking the class with a friend or family member?ABy all means, if this makes sense for you! That said, people tend to connect quickly and naturally during the Becoming You process, so you likely feel a sense of immediate community.
- What should I do if I have other questions?ABring ‘em! Please contact us at hello@suzywelch.com.
