The Foster MBA Mentor Program is an opportunity for both mentees and mentors to learn from each other. Mentees gain exposure to the Seattle business community including different industry sectors and functional roles and potential career paths. You will also learn soft skills relative to leadership development, communication, teamwork and decision-making and how to balance work and life.
Why Become a Mentor?
A mentor is a guide. A friend. A resource who helps pave the way for others to succeed. It’s not about having all the right answers. A Mentor's role is to inspire, encourage, and support their mentees, contributing to their development through thoughtful conversation and consultation.
Why Become a Mentee?
With the help of a mentor, you can gain new knowledge and skillsets that can broaden your career opportunities and personal networks for advancement. As a mentee, gain the confidence necessary to tackle short and long-term goals, navigate challenges, and accelerate your growth.
One of the greatest values of mentors is the ability to see ahead what others cannot see and to help them navigate a course to their destination. - John C. Maxwell
