Skill-flex Advisors

ruby listening to ianSkill-flex advisors support associates by sharing practical knowledge about how to do specific aspects of project design, implementation, management and documentation.

We refer to 'skill-flexes' rather than 'skill sets' because one of Gaia University's goals is to support people to become more agile and flexible thinkers and do-ers in their world change work, rather than people "set in their ways."  

Associates select skill-flex advisors from a pool of graduate advisors within the Gaia University community. Examples of some skill-flex advising areas are digital media capture and editing, permaculture or ecovillage design, food production, energy systems design, business planning and development, public relations and grant-writing, digital literacy and women's leadership design.
