Is it possible to get more details on what the program will consist of? It sounds like fun, it sounds interesting, but I can not tell if I fit into the targeted group.
If you ask specific questions, I’ll try to answer. (I assume you’ve read FAQ #5?) Or if you tell me about yourself and what you’re looking for, I’ll try to tell you if you’re in the target group.
Examples of the what will be demonstrated or what exercises will be practiced would go a long way to help me understand what you are aiming for.
Examples of “Fermi calculations; applying Bayes’ theorem and cognitive biases to daily life” and “reading and using body language; developing a fashion sense; and developing social courage and success” would give me a better idea of how much I could apply to my life or weather you are teaching lessons that I already learned. Weather it would be more valuable for me to not to apply and ensure that someone else got a slot.
I can give more detail on the social effectiveness part of the curriculum.
Training here will include reading body language, transforming your own body language, using fashion, and putting these skills together in the social world. We will also teach some skills for business success to those who already have pretty effective body language and fashion. Everyone has their own fingerprint of social effectiveness, and we plan to make the mini-camp valuable to everyone.
Let me tell you what I currently imagine and then you can correct for incorrect or missing portions.
Body language:
I image some one giving a lecture with slides first talking about the importance of body language and providing evidence, anecdote, and personal anecdote. The lecture would then move on to showing different body postures and the use different common body languages. The might lecturer mimic some specific body language and asking the audience what it means. Then moving on to one on one instruction while the people observe. Multiple groups will be formed if there are enough instructors. A participate would be asked to role play an encounter and then that encounter would be critiqued/discussed and suggestions would be made. Observes would be encouraged to ask questions offer insight that would be vetted to help solidify a common terminology and understanding.
For fashion I would imagine something similar to the above though without props it would be harder to go as in depth. Maybe weave this into a trip into town and a visit to cloths stores?
Other then anecdotes on building culture from the top down I don’t have a clear idea of what business skills would be taught or how they would be taught. Maybe where to go to get more resources? Information on Loans, angle investors, venture capitalists?

Thanks for the reply.

Your guesses about body language and fashion are pretty good, though there will be much more as well. Trips to clothing stores are planned.
Business success training will be teaching ‘advanced social skills’ - Dale Carnegie-ish stuff, microexpressions, etc.
or whether you are teaching lessons that I already learned. Whether it would be more valuable for me to not to apply
Noted, and thank you. I was/am aware of the difference, but obviously was not paying enough attention to catch my mistake this time.
