LGBTQ+ Dare to Lead™ Application Form

Thank you for your interest in the LGBTQ+ Focused Dare to Lead™ Program.  This program will meet for a series of 6-weeks and give people who identify within the LGBTQ+ community a chance to focus building leadership skills within a group that will center gender identity, sexual orientation identity, sexuality identity (and other intersecting identities) throughout the series.  We invite you to learn leadership in a setting where you can be all of who you are.

Please complete this application to express your interest.  As we want to create a group that is diverse as possible - in many forms - we are inviting applications as a first step of participation.  After applications close, we will be in touch to let you know if you were selected for this round of participation and inform you of next steps.  Please pay attention to the dates and times listed on the information page as we would like everyone to attend each session.  If you have any questions about the process, please reach out to Lizza at lizza@redshiftleadership.org and Tanya at tanya@authenticseeds.org.

All applications are due on or before March 28, 2023 at midnight Pacific Time.  Applicants will be notified of their acceptance by email on or before March 31st, 2023 before the sessions start on Friday, April 7, 2023, so you can plan your schedule accordingly.

Question Title

* 8. We're offering a sliding scale pricing structure for this journey. If you want to learn more about what sliding scale means check out this fabulous article. Essentially it's a structure that moves closer to collective liberation and anything that we have internalized about money. Perhaps it'll be something that we even talk about during the month but for right now all you need to basically know is that we want you to choose your fee.

This 6-week engagement, coaching, relationship building, and self exploration is priced at $1250. There are many complex ways to help you figure out what you might offer in a sliding scale structure but we want to keep it pretty simple.   We do not want cost to be a barrier to any one and we realize that some might have access to funds through their organization that might support the possibility for others in the program to access scholarships that we will provide.   We just want to get a sense of what applicants would be able to do or might need regarding cost.  This will not have an impact on whether you are accepted to the program or not.
