Successful interns will learn what it takes to become valuable team players and collaborative leaders with an emphasis on work relevant to what skills they want to develop. FASO internships provide participants with experience working with diverse groups of people, musicians, arts producers, and community leaders. The intern will be required to attend weekly meetings to engage with the Development, Business, Marketing, Production teams, as well as the Board Program Committee. Interns are encouraged to contribute ideas, feedback, and their unique cultural context to these meetings, bringing diversity to the organization's dialogue and developing strong working relationships with the staff. Interns are also assigned to the team(s) to develop themselves in the expertise of their choice. The interns' work week starts with the weekly staff meeting to determine the work plan, assign roles, work deadlines, assess the progress of goals and workload, and determine additional support where needed. They clock in and clock out using an online tool, Homebase, and check in with their supervisor. The interns complete their assigned tasks, referring to the work plan, and presents their work to their supervisor or team(s) at meetings for final completion.
