    Meet Luke Watson, Third Way

    SIGN UP IN THE CSO. Luke Watson, Deputy Director of Strategy and Leadership Development, will be available for 30-minute, one-on-one meetings to discuss opportunities with Third Way.

    To sign-up for an individual meeting, please stop by the CSO in TNH 3.130 or contact the CSO at 512-232-1150.

    3Ls: the Third Way Fellows Program is a full-time, 12-month program that comes with a $50,000 annual stipend, two weeks paid vacation, and benefits. But it also comes with the opportunity to meet with top Washington policy players; to co-author papers and produce new ideas, research, and insights; to learn our methodology; and to leverage our wide-ranging DC network into future career opportunities.

    Every September our four policy programs welcome a new Fellow for the year – during that time, the Fellows take on projects and produce papers and reports with guidance from the program vice presidents. They interact with policy and decision-makers, thinkers and talkers. They are published in major print and online periodicals. They take advantage of Third Way’s ever-growing network of public policy professionals and go on to find fulfilling work at other think tanks, congressional committees, private-sector firms, advocacy organizations, and the federal government.

    During your time at Third Way you will learn skills in:

    ∙ Workflow Management ∙ Leveraging Polarities ∙ Meeting Facilitation and Participation ∙ Parallel Thinking ∙ Dynamic Presentation and Communication ∙ Creativity ∙ Design Thinking ∙ Networking and interview skills

    If you are an ideologically rebellious, fresh-thinking policy wonk willing to listen and learn, we’d like you to join us.

    Apply by March 1, 2017, to start in September 2017.

    If you have any questions, email fellowship@thirdway.org.
