THE EIGHT

The Eight unlocks a new world of possibility for your leadership

The number "8" is symbolic across cultures and disciplines: it represents luck, success, prosperity and regeneration. The Eight takes after its namesake: the program provides you with the knowledge, skills, contacts and experiences to realize your full vision and ambition.

The program experience has eight components

01. Deep & Pragmatic Self-Understanding

3 gold-standard psychometric assessments, specifically designed to provide deeper understanding of yourself, your situation and how to navigate to your goals.

One-to-one 75-minute psychometric debrief at program start and close. Your results inform your coaching work, career management strategy and long-range plan beyond the program.

After each psychometric debrief, you receive a summary of key insights and recommended actions specifically prepared for you and your situation.

02. Informed & Intelligent Coaching

One-to-one guidance to discover and work a transformational goal focused on your career and leadership.

6 one-to-one sessions, with a coach with years' experience working with senior executives at Fortune500 and international non-profits. Sessions are virtual and 75 minutes each.

Informed by our proprietary psychometric analysis, to ensure all your strengths and opportunities are leveraged. Coaching with The Eight matches your pace, understands your context, and provides clear guidance to support your goals.

03. Power & Politics Masterclasses

The Eight's Masterclasses cover the unwritten rules of corporate success.

Research-based executive learning is combined with frank and pragmatic tips and tricks on how to navigate day-to-day and strategic opportunities in executive leadership.

The Masterclass topics are Corporate Influence, Stakeholder Management, Navigating Jerks & Jackasses, Career Management, Personal Branding, and Mastering Behavior Change. Each Masterclass has two 1-hour virtual seminars, a pre-read and an individual activity with personal feedback and coaching.

04. Residentials in Beautiful Locations

The Eight starts and closes with a 2-day residential, attended by all executives on the program.

The purpose of the residential is to advance the insights, strategies and relationships driving your career advancement. The setting and activities are curated for you to access deep focus and new ways of thinking.

The residential agenda includes interactive workshops, inspirational guest speakers and industry experts, and cultural experiences. The Kickoff Residential takes place on 25-26 April, 2025 in Europe. The Capstone Residential is 14-15 November, 2025 in the US. Further details coming soon.
