I see many women focused training programs. How is Superbloom Fellows different?There are 3 specific ways the Superbloom Fellows program is different from many other offerings- It is a year long, virtual LIVE cohort based learning for mid career women professionals designed after decades of pedagogical research by "one of the top 15 innovators in higher education" Dr.Ramya It is designed to be international and across business verticals to provide a diversity of cohort while accentuating the similarities in challenges and solutions We have designed a 3-5 person accountability pods that research has shown dramatically increases the effectiveness of any change-process. The Superbloom team is thrilled that there are many programs from various providers focused on women's success in workplace. If your organizational needs at the current time are different, we offer custom designed programs. Please contact ramya@superbloomfellows.com for a conversation.
