Welcome to a new series in the Amplify Digest newsletter - Build in Public.

We have a (new) official launch date! The Amplify Academy will launch Wednesday, July 20, 2022. I modified the formal launch date to align with travel plans in July.

I’ll be soft-launching the Academy early to those of you who’ve subscribed to the Academy newsletter (separate from this newsletter). If you want early access and to be notified when the Academy is available be sure to add your email below.

Last week on LinkedIn I shared a preview of a long-form course I’m building aimed at supporting first-time and/or newer Heads of People. You can check out the outline below.

Monday I’ll be at X, The Moonshot Factory in Mountain View recording interviews for the Academy. Be sure to follow me on LinkedIn for a behind-the-scenes look at the shoot and a tour of the not top-secret elements of X. PS - they’re hiring across their People & Culture team.
