The Cohort Intensive, a signature program of the Cooperative Leadership Institute, is designed to support the leadership skills of cooperators in the greater Philadelphia area, thereby strengthening our cooperative economy across sectors. Each version of the Cohort Intensive is customized to meet the needs and aspirations of the cohort at that time. This year’s cohort is free, and specifically for Cooperators of Color.

The cohort started in early September 2020. We are not accepting new applications at this time.

“Thank you for a wonderful training experience.” — Stephanie Erby, 2016 graduate from Oaks Management

“What I liked most about the program was the networking opportunities. I built strong relationships with individuals in the programs and with presenters, I value this very much”. — Staff Member and 2016 graduate from Mariposa Food Co-op

“I’ve said to several friends and colleagues that the experience was one of the most rewarding professional experiences I’ve had yet, and I continue to feel that way.

Our approach:  

We believe that relationships are at the heart of good leadership. Participants will learn skills to strengthen the relationships within their team, their cooperative and their community to sustain and grow the business. The Cooperative Leadership Institute programs are inspired and informed by Servant Leadership and Distributed Leadership.
