At Women On Top we believe in mentoring and we believe (a lot!) in the ability of our mentors to change the lives of their mentees for the better. That is why we are starting the new academic year with a series of training seminars around key topics related to this role, which will significantly increase the effectiveness of the guidance you can offer to your mentees, your colleagues or any woman you want to support!
These are 4 two-hour webinars, which will help you learn more about the basic principles of mentoring, and practice skills such as trust and active listening, unconscious biases, goal setting and self-confidence, as well as other important tools that will also maximize your own broader professional development.
4th webinar: Goal setting & self-confidence
Facilitator: Pinelopi Theodorakakou
Guest Speaker: LaToria Brent
When: 19/1/2023 @ 17:00-19:00
The fourth and final webinar of the mentor training cycle is about setting goals and self-confidence. Whether you have years of mentoring experience or are just starting out, you may be wondering what is the best way to support another woman in clarifying her goals, setting priorities and planning the next steps to achieve them. In these two hours we will explore together the appropriate tools for the most effective and constructive support and guidance of your mentees, so that you can optimize the goal-setting process and achieve even better results for both of you next time.
