Virtual Panel: Volunteer Mentorship at Work

April 27, 2022 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm

Wednesday, April 27, 2022, from 12 PM to 1 PM EDT – This virtual panel is open to all who wish to register.

Mentorship, sponsorship, and networks are one of the biggest indicators for success for 2SLGBTQIA+ employees and job seekers. A good mentor can lead to professional development, connections, and open doors that were previously closed for a mentee. While conversely a good mentee can provide the mentor connection to communities they may be unfamiliar with, engage them in development, and build a rewarding professional relationship. This panel discussion by Pride at Work Canada will talk to the power of volunteer mentorship, and how to build effective mentorship relationships which result in finding amazing talent and retention for employers, new perspectives for mentors, and professional growth for 2SLGBTQIA+ mentees.

Learning Objectives:

  • The benefits of mentorship to promote 2SLGBTQIA+ employment
  • How to be a good volunteer mentor
  • How to be a good mentee

Audience:

  • Everyone interested in mentorship
  • 2SLGBTQIA+ employees and job seekers
  • Human Resources professionals
  • Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion Professionals
