Pilot a project with us

Your challenge — executed with clarity, coaching, and a structured project framework

How We Run Your Pilot Project

When you pilot a project with us, we follow a clear and structured approach to ensure reliable progress and measurable results. Our five-step process provides transparency at every stage—from defining the challenge to delivering outcomes and insights. This framework allows you to understand how we work, what to expect, and how your project will be guided from start to finish.

1. Joint Goal Definition

Together, we precisely define the problem or opportunity you want to explore.
Using the SMART framework, we clarify:what outcome we aim to achieve

• how success will be measured
• where we currently stand
• which resources are available

This approach ensures alignment and reduces ambiguity from day one.

2. Mini Vision

We develop a short, motivating vision that connects your expectations with the team’s purpose—creating focus, ownership, and commitment.

3. Mini Strategy 

Our approach is grounded in:
Responsibility – Self-Leadership – Competence – Inclusion
These values guide decision-making, teamwork, and communication throughout the project

4. Execution

We combine classical and agile project management to ensure structure and adaptability.
Teams plan tasks, run sprints, document progress, and communicate results.
Throughout the project, participants receive:
• coaching for self-development
• pedagogical guidance for competence-building

You benefit from a transparent and efficient process.

5. Results & Insights Report

At the end of the project, we jointly assess whether the team has reached the goal or whether a second cycle is recommended.
You also receive a concise insight report summarizing:
• what the team learned about your internal processes
• areas where improvement opportunities emerged
• how young talent perceives your employer brand
• recommended next steps for future collaboration or talent engagement

This ensures that you gain both a project result and strategic value.

Outcome & Long-Term Vision

With these first pilots, we are testing something larger than a program: a potential new pathway into the workforce. Our question is simple but transformative—could employers be willing to hire young people who are trained through real projects, coaching, and future skills rather than through a traditional degree?

These pilots also serve as a direct dialogue with employers. Through their projects and feedback, partner companies not only help us understand real skill needs—they actively shape how this alternative pathway to university education is designed. Their input influences the curriculum, the skill tracks, the coaching elements, and the structure of future programs.

If successful, this model could offer an accessible, scalable alternative to traditional higher education for millions of young people worldwide—co-created with the employers who need this talent most.
