What participants learn from the work

A place for approved Northstar alumni accounts

Alumni stories can help employees see how leadership learning connects to everyday work. Publish a story only after the alum has supplied and approved the account, attribution, role description, and any included work details.

This example does not invent employee names, quotations, or career outcomes. Add approved accounts with context about when and how the described program experience took place.

Publish stories with approval

Ask each alum to review and approve their story, role description, and any work details before publication.

Include a practical takeaway and enough context for readers to understand the situation described.
