"New Sector does work that's strategically important and

critical to the future of our organization, work we need to

get done in order to ensure that our future is successful:

heart and lung work, not appendages."

- Gerald Chertavian, CEO and Founder, Year Up

New Sector’s Residency in Social Enterprise

and Summer Fellows Programs

New Sector’s Residency in Social Enterprise and Summer Fellows

programs give social impact organizations the opportunity to

deepen their impact by leveraging the top talent from the

academic, business, and nonprofit sectors. Through participation

in the Residency and Summer Fellows programs, today’s leading

organizations gain full-time access to the enterprising minds of

tomorrow, as well as support from professional services firms

including Accenture, Bain & Company, The Bridgespan Group,

The Boston Consulting Group, Deloitte, and McKinsey &

Company. Residents and Fellows work on-site at hosting

organizations for the duration of the program to produce

immediate results and enhance long-term capacity.

In the current challenging economic environment, New Sector

helps your organization accelerate social change by providing

you with the talent and tools you need to take your impact to the

next level.

HOW DO THE PROGRAMS WORK?

Becoming a New Sector Host Site

There is no “application process” to become a Host Site organization. New

Sector works collaboratively with key staff at potential Host Site

organizations to scope strategic projects critical to their individual missions

and to create position descriptions and preliminary workplans for each

Resident or Fellow.

Host Sites contribute $35,000 per Resident and $3,000 per Summer Fellow.

These fees allow New Sector to enroll each Resident and Fellow as an

AmeriCorps member and to cover basic costs including living stipends and

benefits for participants, training and materials, and New Sector program

management staff and consultant advisor support. All Residents and

Fellows are on New Sector’s payroll.

Over the course of the program

Selecting your Resident or Fellow

Based on the agreed upon position description, New Sector will match you

with the most qualified candidate who is also the best fit for your

organizational culture. Each potential Host Site organization will participate

in an individualized interview process with Resident and Fellow candidates

in order to make a mutual match. Once matched, a signed contract and the

first quarterly payment are due to New Sector.

Residents and Fellows serve full-time, on-site at Host Site organizations

throughout the program, except when they are participating in training or

reflection activities. Participants meet weekly with their consultant advisors.

Each New Sector program begins with an intensive kick-off training for

participants and wraps up with a dedicated reflection period. Additionally,

Residents and Fellows participate in biweekly trainings (one afternoon

every two weeks) from 3-6pm.

Residency in Social Enterprise (1 year): September August

Summer Fellows (10 weeks): June August

WHY HOST A RESIDENT OR FELLOW?

...because New Sector provides unparalleled professional

advising, training, and support.

• Each Resident and Fellow is paired with a consultant advisor from

one of our partner firms - including Accenture, Bain & Company,

The Boston Consulting Group, The Bridgespan Group,

Deloitte , and McKinsey & Company - to provide experienced

support in strategic processes and to help your organization “get

things done” throughout the duration of the program

...because hosting a Resident or Fellow is an accessible, affordable,

and effective way for organizations to prioritize strategic initiatives

with minimal strain on precious resources.

• Your Resident or Fellow will be exceptionally bright,

analytical, a self-starter, and a proven leader

• Residents and Fellows are prepared to hit the ground running

• Created with input from top practitioners and academics,

including notable contribution from Harvard Business School

faculty

• Covers topics such as accounting and performance

management, finance, leadership and organizational behavior,

marketing, and technology and operations management

• Tools and techniques tailored specifically to be leveraged by

social impact organizations ready to further their impact

...because New Sector’s “Mini-MBA” curriculum culls best

practices from leading business schools, professional services

firms, and social sector practitioners to increase your

organization’s impact.

New Sector does not recruit for any particular educational or experiential

background. Instead, we look for applicants who have demonstrated a

strong commitment to civic engagement, proven their ability to take

initiative and achieve measurable results, and who can

communicate and collaborate effectively. By creating a diverse

cohort of analytical, action-oriented minds with a common goal of

furthering social impact, we ensure our ability to find outstanding

candidates for any Host Site organization.

Our Residents and Fellows and their consultant advisors share a

common desire to make a difference through experiences that will be

both inspiring and intellectually challenging. Though each participant brings

individual experiences and qualifications to the group, we strive to bring

together a pool of candidates that seeks to learn from, as well as contribute

to, their Host Site organizations and their peers.
