💁‍♀️ Your Journey as a Mentor

We hope for our mentors to offer their support for mentees by offering strategic guidance and sharing their experiences and resources. The main goal of all mentors is to foster a supportive partnership throughout the program and encourage the growth and success of their mentees.

• Identify the specific skills and capabilities your mentee aims to develop.
• Share your personal journey and professional experiences.
• Create a confidential and safe environment that allows for honest and direct feedback to the mentee.
