OUR PEOPLE
Homeward Bound was dreamt by one person, brought to life with the creativity and efforts of a few, and established with the support of many more. It continues to grow and develop exponentially thanks to the combined efforts of many people now, around the globe.
We thank the hundreds of participants who have completed the program to date, whose feedback and ideas have influenced the program in significant ways, improving the experience for each cohort that follows them. They are integral to Homeward Bound. You can meet these wonderful women by clicking through to each of the cohort pages: HB1, HB2, HB3, HB4 and the current cohort of HB5.
All HB alumna join the Convergence upon graduation. This group has a steering committee led by alumnae from across all cohorts. You can learn more about this Committee and connect with alumnae by visiting the Convergence Steering Committee page here.
But here we would like you to meet the people behind the delivery of the Homeward Bound initiative. With the exception of the small program management team (two full-time, and two part-time staff), everyone on this page volunteers their time, skills, knowledge and care to help fulfill Homeward Bound’s purpose: leading for the greater good; managing the planet as home.
Come and meet them!
