The Incubator follows a liner program that incrementally develops an individual’s sense of vocation while working through critical issues such as subject choices, work experience, tertiary institution applications and even substance abuse. On a broader level, coaching develops the learning capability of individuals who ultimately show greater levels of personal leadership and an entrepreneurial mindset.
