The Magnetic Foundations Leadership Accelerator (MFLA) is an intensive, 6-week program custom-designed to empower the Harvard Club of Boston’s Board of Governors and Executive Staff with targeted leadership skills, individual action planning, and simulated, situational training for the Club’s reemergence and transition to a new environment with new expectations.
Your IAP serves as a dynamic exploration of how you will meaningfully impact the HCB community. Complete this plan to clarify your personal goals and chart out your action steps to help the Club realize its powerful vision around community.

Dear Harvard Club of Boston Leader,
We are thrilled to officially welcome you to the Magnetic Foundations Leadership Accelerator (MFLA)!
The MFLA is an unparalleled opportunity for the Board of Governors and Executive Staff (“Leadership”) to accelerate the Club’s transformation into a vibrant and connected community. A community that lives beyond the confines of 374 Commonwealth Avenue. A community that people trust and gravitate towards. A community that people can feel.
Essentially, the success of HCB’s strategic objectives around member retention and new member acquisition hinges on the Club’s ability to create a community that people can’t live without. And this process begins and ends with you, as well as the rest of the Club’s Leadership.
Designed to enhance your capacity to cultivate such a magnetic community, the MFLA will equip you and the Harvard Club of Boston’s Leadership with targeted leadership skills, individual action planning, and simulated, situational training. At its core, the MFLA will set the tone, increase alignment, and usher in a period of deep reflection, productive discourse, and bold action from the Club’s Board of Governors and Executive Staff alike.
In closing, we are excited to embark on this journey with you and the Harvard Club of Boston’s Board of Governors and Executive Staff!
We understand this program requires a significant investment of your time, energy, and mindspace. We pledge that we will do everything in our power to ensure you have a meaningful and impactful experience. Our goal is to increase your ability to live the Harvard Club of Boston’s Covenants and create a vibrant, connected, and welcoming community, in which everyone truly feels she, he, or they belong.
Yours in partnership,
Rebecca Wilson and Ty Moore

Dear Harvard Club of Boston Leadership,
We are very much looking forward to seeing you in person at the upcoming Mini-Retreats, which kick off next Friday, September 10th!
As you know, the delta variant of COVID is highly-transmissible, and even vaccinated people can contract this particular variant of the virus, so it is still prudent to be vigilant when interacting with others in person. Given that, and based on the input that we have received from the vast majority of HCB’s Leadership, we have developed a set of measures and guidelines that we are recommending to both provide you with more comfort regarding attending in person and ensure our in-person functions are relatively safe for all to attend.
We certainly understand that everyone has different levels of risk tolerance when it comes to COVID. Nevertheless, as the facilitators of the MFLA, we feel a sense of obligation and responsibility to do what we can to increase your level of safety and comfort, as well as mitigate the potential spread of the virus on our watch.
Thank you for reading these measures and guidelines, and thank you for taking them seriously, in the spirit of advancing the community of the Harvard Club of Boston.
Once you have reviewed the above COVID-19 Measures & Guidelines, please sign the below MFLA Participant Pledge.
