Serve as a Mentor
For seasoned professionals eager to make a lasting impact on the next generation of leaders, becoming a mentor is a fulfilling opportunity. Mentors play a crucial role in guiding and supporting protégé, sharing their wealth of knowledge and helping them navigate the complexities of their chosen fields. Applications include outlining your expertise, industry experience and commitment to fostering the growth of a professional.
Start Your Protégé Journey
As a professional seeking guidance and mentorship, joining the Mentoring Program as a protégé can be a game-changer for your career. Through this program, Protégés pair up with an experienced professional who provides personalized advice, valuable insights and feedback on their career journey. Protégés work alongside their Mentor to navigate their path to success. The application includes expressing your career goals, areas of interest and the specific skills or knowledge you hope to acquire during the mentorship program.
