What is Synthesis?
Strengthen your leadership skills by interacting with fellow Rice students in group coaching sessions. Share common challenges and diverse perspectives with your campus leader peers and learn to coach each other with a professional leadership coach for support.
Synthesis includes:
- Group coaching sessions with 5-10 peers
- Led by a professional coach
- Groups meet five times during one semester (90 minutes each)
- Student Leadership Practices Inventory assessment, report and group debrief
- Co-created leadership plan to help you grow as a leader including leadership goals and tactics to achieve them
New to Doerr?
Synthesis is an excellent, first-time coaching experience. You get to experience coaching with a certified, professional coach and you get to connect with fellow student leaders as you work toward a personalized leadership goal.
Already taken Doerr programs?
Synthesis is a great way to expand on the work you've already done in other coaching programs. If you have completed Activation coaching, Synthesis will give you the opportunity to continue your coaching experience with a peer group and a group coach.
