BECOME A MENTOR

Help someone navigate tech with confidence

Share what you’ve learned. Being a step or two ahead is all it takes to change someone’s path.

What mentoring looks like

What you'll do

  • Meet one-on-one with your mentee
  • Talk through goals, decisions, and roadblocks
  • Share your experience, the wins and the mistakes

The commitment

About one hour a month, on a schedule that works for you. Most mentorships run for several months.

Fully remote-friendly.

You're more ready than you think

You don’t need to be a senior executive. If you’re a step or two ahead of where your mentee is, and willing to share honestly, you can make a real difference.

THE MENTOR

Watching my mentee confidence grow over time has been the most rewarding thing. And honestly, I got just as much out of it.
