Leadership Journey
Exclusive Event for Teach First Deutschland Alumni | 28.-31.10.2021 | Applications open
Who do YOU dare to be and which IMPACT do you want to stand for?
Since 2012 Teach First Deutschland Alumni have been at the forefront of advancing equal opportunities through their work in education, politics, the non-profit and the corporate world. We are inspired by your visions, your action and your impact. And we want to support you in being the change you want to see in the world.
This is why Teach First Deutschland supports YOU and YOUR mission. No matter the industry, the organisation or the country you are in.
The Leadership Journey is a 5-day residential retreat supporting those who are already making a difference in bringing their individual impact to the next level. Afterwards you will have a chance to participate in a 6-months post-coaching process allowing you to implement the vision you have put forth for yourself on the event.
The Arc is much more than a leadership training, it has changed every single day after, and not just my professional life. You have to be brave to really jump into the experience. Once you do it’s wonderful.
The Arc was the most powerful personal development training I have ever joined. Thinking about the Arc is like thinking about taking the red or the blue pill. Joining the Arc means, taking the red one. It will challenge and questing what you think about yourself, your life, your feelings and your vision.
The Arc opened doors to my inner self which had been closed for a long time. I found answers to some of the biggest questions in my life. The experiences and learnings continue to positively affect my every day actions – from the inside and outside.
The Leadership Journey is reserved to alumni of Teach First Deutschland. It is designed for young professionals who are…
- already committed to advance social, environmental or economic development, but who feel that they can (and want to!) push the envelope,
- willing to question the impact they have generated so far in their life,
- curious to understand their limits and the edge of their comfort zone,
- giving and excited about building meaningful connections with their peers,
- certain that they could have a much better and greater impact, if _ _ _ [fill in the blank],
- at some level sincerely wanting to inspire themselves and others.
In short: The Teach First Leadership Journey is designed for those Teach First Alums who relentlessly aspire to be an agent for change. It is for those who embarked on a mission-driven path, and who in one way or another have proven to the world that – yes – they were serious about servant leadership, collective impact – you name it! Yet, maybe after years of hard work impact fatigue, exhaustion or a whiff of disillusionment about why you do the things you once set out for have sneaked themselves into your life. And you catch yourself thinking: Where did my inspiration go? How do I get back into the flow again?
If I was to generate the impact I truly want to stand for – what would I REALLY do?
What on earth are we gonna be doing?

After this event you will have a clearer understanding on:
- What your impact mission (Yes, MISSION!) really is you truly want to follow
- Which person you need to grow into if you want to have larger and deeper impact. Where you need to push the envelope.
- How on earth you can make the hard things become less hard and how to get back into the flow as regards your everyday life.

What to leave at home
- Work. We often call The Arc a retreat, but be aware that there are likely to be some days that might feel exhaustng. The Arc is energising as a whole. Yet – at the same time – requires our energy, full attention and presence. Whilst we understand it is not always possible to 100% shut of work, it is highly recommended.
