Organising your own mentorship can be a daunting task – that’s why we’ve have tried to make the process as easy as possible.
What is Mentor Matching?
How do I find a mentor or mentee on the BWC Edinburgh platform?
First, subscribe to BWC Edinburgh then head to connect to the app. From there, we’ll guide you through the process step-by-step and the dates when you can apply for a mentor.
We have a great group of mentors ready to help you in your local area. They can share information about their own career path as well as provide guidance, motivation, emotional support and role modelling. Our mentors will help with everything from exploring careers and setting goals to developing contacts and identifying resources.
Here’s what some of our members
have to say…
Mentor Match
Our Mentoring Programme is open to all BWC Edinburgh Members
“I believe mentoring is one of the key strategies that can help to close the gender gap in leadership, not just in Scotland but around the world. Mentoring is a vital lever we can activate to advance more women in work, help them gain access to capital and economic opportunities they might otherwise miss and be better prepared for opportunities when they come.
One of the responsibilities of being a woman committed to working towards a more just world is being willing to be a mentor when and where needed. We need the support of each other (both mentors and mentees) at all levels. That’s what we’re here to offer.
