Overview
Our Generation Speaks (OGS) is building an infrastructure of hope and trust across
a shared community that demands a peaceful future for Israelis and Palestinians.
OGS is a people accelerator driven by three engines of impact: Community
Building: A lifelong, cross-border network of Israeli and Palestinian leaders
committed to a peaceful future; Leadership Acceleration: Strengthening
leadership skills and amplifying influence to drive change in their communities; and
Entrepreneurship Incubation: Programs and avenues to bring big, bold ideas to
life. For more information visit www.ogspeaks.com.
Our Generation Speaks is seeking an experienced consultant in the intersecting
fields of Program Design, Educational Pedagogy, and Leadership Development to
support a two-phase project that includes review and recommendations on redesign
of the OGS Fellowship program experience along with development of leadership
development offerings for our wider alumni community. The goal of this work is to
articulate a clearer pedagogical foundation to upgrade and evolve the flagship
Fellowship program, refine its components for greater coherence and impact, and
propose a leadership development model for alumni in the years ahead, that both
builds on the experience of the Fellowship - the primary entry point into the
community - and meets the distinct needs of our alumni community to accelerate
and amplify their leadership development.
This engagement will include a review of the current fellowship program
structure—including startup support and coaching, professional and leadership
development, and trust-building (incl. dialogue and political education)
components, and the mentoring program—as well as stakeholder interviews,
analysis, and the development of programmatic recommendations and plans.
Objectives
● Clarify and articulate an integrated pedagogy for the OGS Fellowship,
including program goals, desired learning outcomes, and a proposed
structure that ensures alignment across program components.
● Identify opportunities to strengthen leadership development throughout the
Fellowship.
● Recommend refinements to program flow, sequencing, and integration to
improve learning experience, coherence, and impact.
● Develop a plan and proposed offerings for leadership development within the
OGS alumni community, potentially including workshops, retreats,
partnership opportunities that leverage existing programs and institutes from
outside OGS, and mechanisms to amplify alumni leadership in broader public
and professional arenas.
● Provide OGS with clear, actionable roadmaps for both the Fellowship and
alumni leadership pathways.
