The WaveMakers program is not recommended if you have less than 2 years of work experience or if you’re an experienced people manager (e.g., you’re a manager of managers). If you’re unsure if the program is a good fit given your role, just contact us.

The fellowship kicks off with an immersive 6-week program focused on supporting you with your specific leadership challenges. During this time, you’ll dive deep into practical training, work on real-world projects, and develop essential leadership skills.

After completing the initial 6 weeks, your journey doesn’t stop there! You’ll get a full year of membership (the 6 weeks included) to continue growing and learning. This includes ongoing access to exclusive resources, advanced learning materials, and a supportive circle of mentors and peers. The year-long membership can be renewed, ensuring you have continuous opportunities for development and connection.

The 6-week online program is designed to fit your busy work schedule. Each week you will:

• Get access to new video content and join weekly live sessions on Tuesdays from 6-7:30 PM CET, where you'll exchange experiences, work through weekly exercises together, and participate in breakout rooms.
• Attend optional expert sessions on select Thursdays from 6-6:45 PM CET to learn new strategies and frameworks, followed by an optional Q&A session (1 hour).

This commitment is for the first 6 weeks. Afterwards, it's up to you how much you engage. You can learn and grow at your own pace with monthly events, new videos and exercises, and networking opportunities.

While our mission prioritizes empowering women and underrepresented groups, the Fellowship is open to anyone who seeks to develop their leadership skills and advance their career in an inclusive and supportive environment.

You’ll receive ongoing support from the WaveMakers community team, access to a close-knit circle that understands your journey, industry experts and top-notch resources tailored to your growth and designed to help you maintain momentum and motivation long term.

Unlike most leadership programs, the WaveMakers Fellowship isn’t a one-size-fits-all experience. You’ll receive personalized feedback and guidance tailored to your unique career goals and challenges from the team and your peers. This ensures that what you learn will be directly applicable to your personal journey. The Fellowship also stands out because it focuses on continuous learning, constant connection opportunities, access to expert leaders, and practical, actionable, real-time advice.

The Fellowship is an annual subscription. You can choose to pay in €39 monthly installments, totaling €468 per year, or opt for annual billing at a 20% discount, reducing the cost to only €375. We wanted to make sure to keep the cost affordable while still offering great value because we believe everyone should have access to leadership education. This flexible payment structure ensures that you can invest in your leadership development in a way that suits your budget.
