Introduction & Purpose

Embolden is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Tysons, VA that provides tuition-free career exploration and leadership development programs for under-resourced high school students from the DMV area. Founded in 2019, the organization as of now is entirely volunteer-driven, comprised of more than 20 working professionals from the DMV area. As of summer 2020, Embolden hosts four Student Leadership Programs (SLPs) throughout the year: business, national security, journalism, and women’s leadership.

In response to COVID-19, Embolden pivoted its offerings and hosted webinars (e.g., career panels, leadership lessons). The webinars have allowed Embolden to expand its reach and move quickly to put together a program reflecting the students’ interests. Embolden also postponed its in-person summer 2020 SLPs and decided to host each of the SLP virtually in winter 2020.

• The case will provide INTS 331 students with the opportunity to apply their learning to a real startup nonprofit.

• The case will enable Embolden to improve upon its topic areas identified in the proposal.

• The case will introduce INTS 331 students to Embolden-affiliated professionals across diverse industries, expanding the students’ networks.

• At the end of the case, INTS 331 students will produce a consulting brief that could serve as a consulting/writing sample for future internships or jobs.
