What’s Being Said …

YouTube: Check out what a former mentor and mentee have to say about the success they
experienced on a similar programme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3AmDByk34c&t=14s

Mentors
•   Comprehensive, supported experience, learned a structured framework for mentoring.
•   It changed the way I relate to and manage my staff and colleagues.
•   As a male mentor I also got an education about what it’s really like for working women.
•   Felt energised and empowered by the entire experience.
•   Recommend for professionals who want to get more out of life and work.
•   “In terms of my mentee and myself I am very satisfied with her and pleased to hear that she has
    actually taken my advice. She was promoted about a week ago which is exciting. Our meetings
    are still ongoing despite the programme having ended.”
•   “It was great to help someone shape her career. I enjoyed working structurally with assessing
    her future and priorities. I took the opportunity to practice active listening”

Mentees
•   Strong foundation for journey of self-discovery and empowerment.
•   Unique programme in Singapore.
•   Opened a new vision for my personal and corporate development.
•   Learned skills they don’t teach you at business school.
•   Built confidence in networking and need to increase my visibility inside and outside the
    organisation.
•   Challenged me to discover new ways of developing skills and thinking.
•   “I came in with biased views and left with an open mind and a bigger appreciation for diversity
    in the workplace.”
•   “I regained my confidence. I learnt how to be structured in building up my project events. Most
    importantly, I learned to target higher and not limit myself.”
