Coh0rt 26A

Having a seat funded by your organisation
An organisation can enrol one employee, or several. The application stays individual and the selection unchanged: it is the person who joins the cohort, not the company. Mention it in your application or write to us, and we will arrange the conversation with the people involved.
- Individual seat
- 12,000,000 GNF
- One employee joins the public coh0rt. Application and selection unchanged.
- Personalised executive
- From 25,000,000 GNF
- One-to-one support for a leader, calibrated to their organisation.
- Private coh0rt
- From 60,000,000 GNF
- A session dedicated to a single organisation, on request.
An employer-funded seat stays at the session's published tuition. Executive and private-coh0rt formats are set after a conversation about scope, numbers and timing.
Discuss sponsorshipWhat you need to take part
Nothing exotic. But these are not optional: the method depends on you actually participating.
- A computer
- Live sessions, deliverables and peer review all happen on a computer. A phone is not enough to produce the deliverables.
- A stable connection
- Enough for one weekly video call with camera on. Written resources stay available offline.
- 3 to 5 hours a week
- Live session included. Project weeks ask for 5 to 7. This is the most common reason people drop out, so assess it honestly.
- A real problem
- You arrive with a concrete challenge from your organisation. It runs through all sixteen weeks and becomes the basis of your final defence.
- The working language
- Live sessions are facilitated in French. More comfortable in English? You are welcome: mention it during the admission conversation.
- Openness to challenge
- Your reasoning will be contested by your peers and by the facilitator. That is the core of the method, not an accident.
