The fellows are grouped into clusters of three to four, determined either by the stage of the venture and/or the area of focus. The goal of the clusters is to build a practice of reflection and openness to feedback, as well as a community of peer-support to enable to the Fellows to advocate for one an- other throughout their development.

The Fellows meet with their clusters every month. During each cluster, two Fellows are invited to work- shop a challenge they are experiencing. Moderated according to Harvard’s hotseat methodology, the cluster meeting follows this format:

"There is so much to do in launching a venture, and it’s hard to focus on so many things at once! My venture is already happening, and it makes it harder to work on the vision while also working on the details. Sometimes what’s most urgent and what’s most important is not the same, and I have trouble prioritizing what should come first."

• "How do you recruit?"
  
• "How labor intensive is it to be in touch with all your contacts?"
  
• "Have you considered doing a group conference call?"
  
• "You really need to assess the accountability and the metrics and goals."
  
• "Before you write your business plan, you need your mission and your vision."
  
• "You should mobilize your leaders organizationally."
  
• "Have you tried writing out your tasks for the week and blocking off time for them on your calendar?"

"Your suggestion to manage the different campuses would be very helpful. Maybe I should put more focus on that. But I don’t want to wait for 100% clarity before I start to engage. What I should be doing is being more forceful with the follow-up and tracking."
