Amplify Weekly Recap — June 17, 2022

Amplify Academy: Recording at X

I’m on the road this week, so didn’t have an opportunity to record my Amplify Digest video recap, but you can find all of the links from this week below this video.

On Monday, I was on-site at X, The Moonshot Factory (formerly Google X). I was recording CPO interviews for the launch of the new Amplify Academy next month with Zander Media’s production team. As you might imagine, their HQ is amazing. Check out the behind-the-scenes footage in the AmpliFiles video below.

Build in Public

We have an official launch date! The Amplify Academy will launch Wednesday, July 20, 2022.

I have a group of 30 test pilots from the Amplify Academy community currently testing the Learning Lab to help me find any bugs and make some final tweaks as we get closer to launch next month.

In the meantime, here’s another preview of some of the key takeaways from the “First Time Head of People” Guide course.

Upcoming Event: Leadership From the Heart (A Culture Amp Community Fundraiser for Ukraine)

I don’t often share events here because there are just so many, but I want to make an exception for this one. Culture Amp is hosting this fundraiser event with the aim of raising $100,000 USD to go directly to charities supporting Ukraine. I’m honored to be included in the speakers volunteering to raise money for this important cause. You can learn more, make a donation or register to watch the streaming event here.
