Our Launchpad is a tightly committed group of high school-aged heroes, dedicated to finding a passion, forging genuine relationships, mastering core skills like reading, writing and math, and delivering world-class projects – all to find a calling that will change the world.
Strong knit cultures and world-changing adventures do not come easily. A good reason for tackling the Build a Tribe & Free Agent Quest to boldly face the threshold into adulthood and committing to finding an extraordinary first job where they could:
- Use a “superpower” to earn enough money to survive independently of parents;
- Hone a deliberate practice that attracts fascinating opportunities; and
- Use the positive aspects of the REAL YOU to contribute to a culture.
During the exhibition, Launchpadders also demonstrated Heroic Interviewing skills with a real employer, showed videos of their Next Great Adventure (NGA) promises, as well as completing a badge and NGA plan for the year.
Finally, through exploring each person’s individual “Why?” and creating a Culture Deck, our young heroes wrote a powerful LP Mission Statement with a promise to build a culture Google or SpaceX would envy.
