Mentoring

Every successful leader has had someone who believed in them, someone who inspired, challenged, and supported their growth. That’s the power of mentoring. As a PWH^® member, you have access to all of our mentoring programs, whether you’re ready to give back as a mentor or seeking guidance as a mentee or both! Mentoring relationships foster a safe space to ask questions, receive feedback, and work toward clear, actionable goals. They are a powerful way to develop leadership skills, expand your network, and elevate your career, while strengthening your connection to our community.

What is Individual Mentoring?
Individual Mentoring is the start of a long-term relationship between a Mentor and a Mentee. Together, they build a professional partnership where the Mentor provides the Mentee ongoing support for approximately one year. At the start, each Mentee sets a specific and measurable goal to work toward with the support of their Mentor. This kind of mentoring encourages personal and professional development while cultivating trusted relationships that can last a lifetime.

What is Situational Mentoring?
Situational Mentoring is designed for quick, targeted support. These short-term connections help mentees tackle immediate challenges, gain insight into specific issues, or make informed decisions when it's most needed. Situational Mentors are selected from the PWH^® membership based on their subject matter expertise and availability. Typically lasting one to two calls, these focused conversations deliver timely, relevant advice when it’s needed most.

What are Mentor Circles?

PWH^® Mentor Circles offer a dynamic group mentoring experience where professionals at all levels come together to connect, learn, and grow around a shared topic. Each Circle includes one Circle Leader and 10 to 15 Circle Members who meet five times over ten weeks. The Circle Leader facilitates inclusive, engaging discussions and ensures every voice is heard. These conversations often extend beyond the program itself, fostering lasting professional relationships. Learn more about upcoming Mentor Circle topics.
