I agree. Next in the production line as our capacity (hopefully) grows! I can give my intuitions based on the program on the question of:
”Local group leaders like me often have to weigh a tradeoff of whether one-off calls like 80K’s or regular mentoring calls like WANBAM works better, so being able to view deeper impact data would be good!”
Commenting on the models: I would say it depends on what your program user is looking to achieve and your capacity. At WANBAM, we have experimented both with one-off calls (now combined with access to our Slack and all our events) and our standard model of an average of monthly meetings for six months. To make this concrete, if I had someone who was interested in lots of different career paths but whose plans were still in the process of developing, I might connect them to a handful of people for a one-off call and then invite them to our events. If I have someone who is building their leadership skills with the aim of being promoted at work to management, I might connect them to one person who excels in this field to work with them over a period of six months. Essentially, capacity allowing, I work out (and this is not to say flawlessly- I am learning!) what we can concretely help with and try and tailor to do so. Thanks so much, Brian! Always happy to have a call with Group organizers if I can help :)

Ah I didn’t know WANBAM has experimented with one-off calls, and it makes sense that you would try that out. Thanks for the information!
