Thriving Accelerators

A Thriving Accelerator is an immersive workshop-style learning event from the Center for Positive Organizations about a topic in the science of thriving. After completing, students will be able to immediately implement their learnings to create lasting personal and organizational impact.

In each of these actionable accelerators, students will:

  • Develop knowledge related to a particular research topic: Accelerators introduce the science for knowing.
  • Develop skills to create actionable know-how: Accelerators apply the science for doing.
  • Develop relational and embodied capacity to model and live the topic: Accelerators model the science for lived experience of being
