Work with us

We’re looking for instructors to create courses and/or run workshops in the summer!

 

Expressing your interest only takes a couple of minutes

​

​

​

​​

We’re open to working with a variety of people and disciplines that are compatible with the Supercycle ethos, so no need to hold back on expressing interest, though you can find more detail on who would be a good fit below. 

​

The “Supercycle Development Collective” is our full legal nonprofit name because we envisioned expanding the community to include workshops and course library offerings from a variety of different practitioners. ​​​​

 

How we’re thinking about this

​

We’d love for our community to have “pockets” of personal and professional developmental interests, including potential instructors who would like to bring more of their practice to a wider audience. 

​

We think that having a collection of people who want to bring these developmental practices to others will be enriching for themselves, other practitioners learning alongside them, and the Supercycle community at large. 

​

We’re currently aiming to have a ‘cohort’ of a handful of instructors that would like to develop their workshops and/or recorded courses that will be delivered in the summer. 

​

Informed by our experience running a coaching training program, we currently have Coaching Training courses and workshop offerings, but would also like for practitioner development to not only come from the Supercycle team. 

​

There’s so much to learn when it comes to these forms of development and we see real potential here for a vibrant network of people interested in delivering personal and professional development to blossom. 

​

Compensation

​

We’re interested in working out various pay arrangements, including direct pay, pay based on workshop series attendance and subscription referrals, opportunities for others to buy your workshops directly, and other collaborative trades.*

​

If you’d like to have supplementary offerings, including personal coaching sessions that accompany your workshop material, we’re happy for you to earn by providing that. Also, your intellectual property will remain entirely yours. 

​

It’s likely you’d make more if you were to deliver your own workshops series by yourself. If that’s the case, why run workshops at Supercycle? 

​

You might want to build your offerings with us because: 

​

• the timelines, supportive cast and setting seem like great conditions to really focus on developing your content

• we’ll offer guidance and co-working as you develop your content

• You can develop your materials with other practitioners

• Supercycle has a pool of subscribers already interested in taking these kinds of workshops

• you might want to diversify across several platforms for delivering your content

• you see the long-term potential in building your offerings through Supercycle

• you might want to contribute to this community we’re building

 

To give you a sense of where we're are at the time of launching, Supercycle is still bootstrapping funding for the co-founders through fundraising, generating revenue via subscriptions, and continuing our 'day jobs' (Tee is still coaching full-time). 

​

We'd love to get to a place where we can make bets by paying people directly to develop content. 

​

Who would be a good fit? 

​

Something we’d suggest applicants consider most is whether the vibe of Supercycle, especially if that which is on the homepage resonates. We’re happy to clarify things as well as we explore working together. 

​

Don’t worry if you feel that your profile doesn’t seem to be a perfect fit. We’d like to have a diverse group of instructors, so we’d be excited to be persuaded, take chances and examine our own assumptions about people during this process. 

​

On a more concrete note, the first group of practitioners will mostly consist of people who’ve already gotten early traction in guiding others in some form (e.g. sustaining a coaching or therapy practice, consistent mentoring, leadership of a project, experience in management), especially in high-responsibility contexts. 

It’s less likely that we’d invite those without any kind of traction to be instructors. 

We’re more likely to see potential in working with you as a guest instructor if: 

​

• Your heart is in this. We’re looking for this and care about it a lot. 
   

• Unmistakably high rapport exists between us. Beyond just likability, there are important seeds of potentiality captured by rapport
   

• Building out your own practice to a wider audience seems to fit within your life plans (including basic logistical considerations) 
   

• You’re not explicitly relying on Supercycle to make a living (at least initially). We’re confident in being a presence that helps you prepare to make a living for yourself, rather than exclusively through earning from us.
   

• Basic coordinating and syncing with people come relatively easy for you. High degrees of coordination and syncing abilities within diverse and complex environments would be even better
   

• You can demonstrate a track record of thoughts and actions that align with things mentioned on the homepage
   

• We can tell that you’re viewing working with Supercycle as important to a mainline plan that you’re already actively driving forward (or strongly intend to pursue) 
   

• Your relationship to intellectual content and property is relatively open, respectful and trustworthy (i.e. we want to hand you tools and techniques to share with others. But it’s about how the content is shared) 
   

• We can get a sense of a certain grittiness across different areas of your life
   

• You can demonstrate instances, periods, and/or patterns of sustained contribution to the commons or local culture (i.e. investing in the environment for friends, family, community, co-workers, etc.)
   

• We can see evidence of your willingness and potential ability to handle the “business side” of running in your own practice, including markers of reliability, consistency, intentionality, etc. 
   

• We get the sense that you’re treating this collaborative process as a two-way street (i.e. we get some indications (e.g. questions) that you’re carefully considering whether to participate)

​
* for example, one prospective coach is working with me on building their practice in exchange for supporting Supercycle with strategy, communications and operations
