Administrative Fellowship Structure
Fellowship Structure Overview
The fellowship consists of four quarterly rotations, in which fellows are each paired with members of the senior leadership team within their respective department. In these rotations, fellows also work closely with directors who will meet with them on a one-on-one basis to review project work, communicate feedback on their experience and help navigate within the organization. In addition, the fellows have flexibility to get exposure and experience in other areas outside their current rotation. Furthermore, the fellows will participate in performance improvement, financial management and standing senior leadership and organizational meetings.
Fellows will develop a detailed understanding of area-specific operations and become active members of a local management team. As a result, fellows will have the opportunity for project specific work that ties to strategic goals within the various departments.
