Are you an experienced coach or therapist interested in taking on a new challenge? Then this is for you!
Our emerging organization, Rethink Wellbeing, aims to improve mental resilience and productivity at scale, starting in the Effective Altruism Community.

You can find out more about the programs we run in this post.
We run online groups, running 1.5 - 2 hours sessions per week for 8 -16 weeks. In these groups, participants boost their mental wellbeing together, applying cutting edge psychological techniques. Our current program focuses on Third-Wave Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as well as Behavior Change methods as well as on Internal Family Systems.
The facilitators of these groups do not teach the group but rather operate as moderators, enablers of structure and owner of vibes. Participants learn about the techniques and contents with the help of selected high-quality material such as online workbooks in between the sessions as homework. You can learn more about our programs on our website and by talking to us.
The mission of our Program Lead will be to:
iterate and extend the current program content and facilitator training based on the feedback from participants and facilitators from 2024, automate and improve different parts
manage the execution of the next program iteration as well as the facilitators
grow into fully own the product department and later to teach leads of new programs
support to build the community of facilitators and participants (optional)
support with research, e.g., with the Randomized Controlled Trial (optional)
We have an evaluation system in place to measure the success of sessions and the programs' pre-post.
