The OSE Mentorship is an opportunity for you to learn about collaborative movement entrepreneurship, using a open collaborative techniques. It is as much about developing a vision and mindset of collaboration - along with the skill set to build things. We build optimized products as product ecologies that deliver the promise of improving the quality of life for everyone. The intended audience is individuals who have a high capacity for rapid, integrated learning. This consists of an hour-long weekly meeting - directly with me - Marcin Jakubowski - where we delve into the philosophical and practical aspects of open-collaborative development, regenerative design, open source appropriate technology, and movement entrepreneurship. The intent is to provide a strategic and tactical awareness of what it takes to work on pressing world issues - using truly open, inclusive, and collaborative techniques - to create an inclusive economy of abundance. Via an approach that centers on entrepreneurship, which provides financial independence as a prerequisite to the freedom of choice required to take on important work. The goal here is to cultivate mindsets of possibility regarding solving remaining unsolved problems in civilization - and to cultivate a culture of discipline that can anable anyone who is truly interested - to take on this path as a way of life. The OSE Way.

=Overview 2020=
'''The OSE Mentorship program has been introduced in 2020.''' It started as a 1-2 year mentoring program hosted by the leadership of OSE. Candidates are trained to replicate OSE operations in this time frame in order to start an enterprise based on OSE's work, which may include production of machines, an [[OSE Chapter]], or another collaborative relationship in another location. The eventual track of chapters creation is towards building a network of [[OSE Campuses]] worldwide.


=Intent - OSE Mentorship Agreement=
The intent of the OSE Mentorship is to start long-term relationships with individuals interested in carrying the work of OSE forward, in close collaboration with OSE. The program is flexible, but it does hold collaboration as its highest ideal. That means that we work on [[BHAG]]s aimed at solving pressing world issues, and anyone who joins the project works in alignment with and in support of the current [[Mission]]s of OSE.
Current active areas include housing, 3D printing, and heavy machines. To provide maximum flexibility - it is the candidate's choice as to how closely they work with OSE after the Mentorship. For the closest collaboration with OSE along OSE's roadmap to the completion of the [[GVCS]] by 2028, the OSE Chapter route can be followed. If a Fellow wants to start other projects, based on OSE technology but not along OSE's critical path - then the candidate can choose to work independently. In the case of independent operation, OSE provides the skills training via the Mentorship, and OSE can certify the candidate's skill set with its certification exams. The certification exams are independent from certification as an official OSE Chapter. In the independent operation route - the candidate cannot use OSE's brand without specific permission.
For the OSE-aligned route under the OSE brand - the OSE Mentorship can be aimed at creating an OSE Chapter via a chapter agreement. A Chapter agreement can apply to any region of the world, and starts with local/regional chapters of OSE. There is currently no restriction on the locations of Chapters, as Chapters are driven primarily by interested stakeholders - who operate from their local base. The growth path with OSE may include the transition of local chapters to full Open Source Microfactories, and further growth to land-based [[OSE Campuses]] - at the regional, country, and international level. The collaborative goal of all the prospective Chapters for the near term (until 2028) is completion of the [[GVCS]] as a basis for replicating OSE Campuses worldwide.
There are 3 separate phases: Training, Skill Certification, and Chapter Charter or its dissolution. The Training and Certification is a prerequisite for a Chapter Charter. The phase of the OSE Mentorship involves the Training part, with skills certification as an optional part that is included in the Mentorship. Skills certification is pursuant to performance exams in building machines, teaching, and running workshops, to be defined specifically at a later date. Skill Certification measures one's ability to execute on OSE-based programs, and allows the candidate to run such programs - though not under the OSE brand. Only the Chapter Charter allows for operation under the OSE brand.

The OSE Mentorship is an opportunity for you to learn about collaborative movement entrepreneurship, using a open collaborative techniques. It is as much about developing a vision and mindset of collaboration - along with the skill set to build things. We build optimized products as product ecologies that deliver the promise of improving the quality of life for everyone. The intended audience is individuals who have a high capacity for rapid, integrated learning. This consists of an hour-long weekly meeting - directly with me - Marcin Jakubowski - where we delve into the philosophical and practical aspects of open-collaborative development, regenerative design, open source appropriate technology, and movement entrepreneurship. The intent is to provide a strategic and tactical awareness of what it takes to work on pressing world issues - using truly open, inclusive, and collaborative techniques - to create an inclusive economy of abundance. Via an approach that centers on entrepreneurship, which provides financial independence as a prerequisite to the freedom of choice required to take on important work. The goal here is to cultivate mindsets of possibility regarding solving remaining unsolved problems in civilization - and to cultivate a culture of discipline that can anable anyone who is truly interested - to take on this path as a way of life. The OSE Way.

The OSE way is a lifeling learning process. The Mentorship is intended to build a closely-knit community, with a goal of a full-time transition to OSE-inspired work. To make this happen, we develop open, collaborative enterprise as a means of bootstrapping progress. This is a response to my frustration at the obvious fact that collaboration can free us from useless toil - yet every corporation is proprietary, reinventing the wheel instead of unleashing true progress. So far I have not met a single entrereneur in the world - who is interested in collaborating on an enterprise with scalable impact. Even in the world of open source. So I have to do this myself: first by starting a robust open enterprise (Seed Eco-Home), and building a community around me - who aspires to Level 6 Leadership.
