So far we're onto something.

Our last Climate Drift Career Accelerator cohort received a Net Promotor Score (NPS) of 75 and 4.7/5 star rating from senior professionals who are notoriously hard to impress.

Plus we’re getting reviews like this: 😍

1️⃣ “This is truly like no cohort out there! (I've done a few). The intimate community setting and amazing, intelligent speakers are unmatched.”

2️⃣ “I’ve already gotten tremendous value out of the course; specifically the action-oriented nature of the course (learning + doing, not just learning) and the orientation towards landing a career in climate and HOW to do it”

3️⃣ ”I learned SO MUCH and feel 10x more equipped for my climate career goals than before.”

4️⃣ “10 out of 10: The content is in-depth and interesting, and gives the cohort opportunities to get involved by tackling challenges hands on (which in my opinion, is the best way to learn!)


We do all of this in partnership with World-class Climate VCs and Climate Tech Companies 🙏

Product Manager for UX

Jana

It's a start-up and we wear many fancy hats around here. My favorite hat is Product Management.

Creating new products for our B2B platform means starting with use cases, sketching wire frames and writing detailed product specifications. Every product feature we build, I test myself and communicate consistently with engineering to deliver scalable solutions.

When I don't work on our core research product I optimize landing pages, test lead generation strategies through case studies and run global research projects for our Fortune 500 clients.

I also instituted a weekly ice-cream budget which benefits... well, mostly me!

Product Manager

“**Daddy, what have you done to keep Mother Earth healthy?**”  👉 Having a good answer for my kids when this Q hits is my personal North Star.

Over the last decade, I bootstrapped my technical education company to be the market leader (60+ NPS), helped 1,000s of people transition careers, sold the first $2M in revenue by myself, got acquired by the fastest growing EdTech company in the US, and scaled the entire online offering to 8-figures ARR in year 1, leading to a $750M acquisition. 

And learning an unbelievable amount of company-building skills (12 to 500 to 4,000 people).

Today, I use all this experience for my next chapter: 

Transitioning 1M people into the Climate Economy. 

My portfolio:
> I’m on the board of 3 high-impact organizations in climate and education. 
> I mentor impact entrepreneurs through the Edmund Hillary Fellowship.
> I built one 6-figure, one 7-figure, and one 8-figure business.

Marco Morawec

I’m ALL about lifting others up.

And I asked my friend Eugene Kirpichov to send me a 1 min video.

Explaining what he does at Work on Climate.

(One of the most respected Climate non-profits I know).

So others can get behind it.

And just to be clear:

I’ve donated my time (I’m on the WOC board) and money (whatever I could give) to WOC before.

And will continue to do so.

Yes, I am building Climate Drift.

Yes, we’re moving a lot of people into climate (we focus exclusively on senior /exec level).

But I never looked at this game as a zero-sum, winner takes all.

Eugene and I have been supporting and helping each other for years.

Go do the same and pick WOC as the non-profit you support this holiday season.

And please tell Eugene what you liked best about his 1-minute pitch in the comments.

(he hates that I make him do those pitch videos 🤣).


Let’s go!
