Mentoring

Mentoring

Mentoring - or literally, taking someone under your wing - is an essential part of every woman’s personal and professional development journey. Anyone, both young and old, can be a Mentor or a Protégé/Mentee.

Each of us possesses a wealth of knowledge and experiences, our own unique brand of enthusiasm and personal perspectives. Sharing this with others can be life changing for both Mentors and Mentees/Protégés. To Mentor, you only need to provide advice on specific issues; support someone to clarify career plans, evaluate options, find motivation and take action. To be a Mentee/Protégé, you only need to seek advice on specific issues by consulting with your chosen Mentor. The only requirement for both Mentors and Protégés/Mentees is a commitment to listen and learn from others.

Because mentoring is such an important aspect of our human existence and working life, W.I.N. provides a variety of ways for participants to give people a greater chance of succeeding. And in the end, build purposeful and uplifting relationships with others.

We invite each of you to join the W.I.N. Community on LinkedIn and also to join the subgroup on Women and Mentoring. Please note that you need to be a member of the W.I.N. Community first before joining the subgroup on Women and Mentoring. You can become a member and join the discussions by following the links:
