Help develop leaders who transform our industry by creating Mentoring relationships between WICT members.
"Mentoring is a privileged relationship between a more experienced person and a less experienced person where profound learning happens and a mutual
responsibility grows. The Mentee gains from the Mentor's tacit professional and organizational knowledge, and gets accelerated experience and insight.
The Mentor gains a sense of sponsorship and legacy, as well as fresh insights and renewal. Mentoring is less about competencies and more about wisdom."

The success of the Program is highly dependent upon your leadership and participation—more than any other component of the program. The Mentee’s perception of the Program’s value is based upon the relationship with you as the Mentor. You are the Program’s most valuable asset. Specifically your role is to: >Attend the mandatory kick-off meeting. >Schedule and attend meetings with your Mentee every 4-6 weeks. When these meetings are cancelled or not scheduled at all, the Mentee’s perception of the value of the Program goes down dramatically, so this is very important.
> Advise Mentoring Program Co-Chairs of any updates in contact information or the situation of your Mentees, or any difficulty in living up to the responsibilities outlined above.. | |

The success of the Program is highly dependent upon your participation and commitment. As a Mentee, you OWN the process. We are looking for candidates who are ready to take the next step in their careers, are already taking the initiative to identify the next steps, and anxious to take advantage of the resources available to them through this Program. Literally: The more you bring to the Program, the more you will get from it. A Mentor is there to connect you with helpful resources, provide you with insight and offer advice that will be given without judgment or criticism. Specifically, your role is to: > Attend the mandatory kick-off meeting. > Attend the mandatory Mentee Workshop. > Participate in the scheduling and lead the agenda-setting of meetings with your Mentor every 4-6 weeks. This helps to build your relationship with your Mentor and keeps them involved in your development. > Seek and utilize the tools that the Mentor Program will provide. > Use the Mentoring Program Co-Chairs as necessary – such as updating them on your contact information or suggesting ideas for making the program more effective. You will continue to reap the benefits of the investment of time you've made. |
