A Leadership Accelerator

Offered in partnership by JUST Capital and Charter, the Executive Fellowship is an exclusive strategic accelerator for senior corporate executives committed to building better workplaces. The Fellowship equips leaders to invest in worker well-being and harness generative AI to improve job quality and drive long-term business results.

The Fellowship Experience

Our curriculum is built to align with each executive’s organizational goals—supporting transformation without disrupting day-to-day leadership. Each executive leader drives a live strategic initiative, supported by IDEO co-designed tools, cross-sector experts, and structured implementation coaching. Leaders leverage peer collaboration, executive case studies, and expert-led deep dives on issues like AI, career pathways, and workforce strategy, to more holistically develop and scale a corporate strategy that aligns with their organizational priorities and values.

  • Executive Case Studies: Proprietary case studies, bridging cutting-edge research with practical implementation
  • Timely Issue Exploration: Explore the latest in AI, ethics, job quality, and people strategy through expert-led sessions with Charter and a trusted cross-sector network
  • Design Thinking Methodology: Access to design and innovation support from our curriculum co-developer, IDEO, to transform vision into executable strategy
  • Signature Executive Retreat: Intensive opening experience in Santa Fe, NM (October 5–8) with structured peer collaboration
  • Integration-Focused Design: Curriculum architected to seamlessly integrate with existing leadership responsibilities while delivering immediate strategic value
