NEXT LEADER MENTORSHIP PROGRAM
For alumni a few years into their careers who are asking “What's next?” — 8 months of small-group mentoring with senior leaders who have already lived the decisions ahead of you.


KAMP X is not a course where someone tells you what to do. It is a space to learn through the lived experience of people who have walked the road ahead of you.
Real stories from senior leaders — successes, failures, decisions and trade-offs you will not find in a textbook.
Mentors ask questions, broaden your perspective and help you make your own decisions with more clarity and confidence.
Not a one-off session. A continuous mentorship journey where you learn and grow together over time.
“A mentor doesn’t tell you which path to take.
They help you see the paths you couldn’t see before.”
At the start of a career, the question is simple: “How do I begin?”
A few years in, the questions start to change.
Some questions don’t need one more course.
They need perspective from someone who has been there.
Continuous small-group mentoring with your X Mentor from January to August.
Two days away to build real relationships and create space for deeper learning.
Learn from mentors and mentees of different backgrounds to gain new perspectives.
Special sessions where senior leaders share the decisions that shaped them.
Grow alongside young alumni who share your ambition and a growth mindset.
