Women in Business: Make Mentoring Work for You November 9, 2010

When was the last time you really took a minute to think about what's important for your career or personal growth? So many of us are multi-tasking, working long hours and stretching ourselves in ways we never imagined. Isn't it time to take a break from the routine and start looking for a development opportunity?

Mentoring is about exploring, growing, enhancing your network, moving up your career; focusing on YOU. Join us to hear stories about mentoring from both mentors and mentees, with both corporate and entrepreneurial backgrounds. And join our discussion with a mentoring story of your own.

Specific topics to be addressed:
- What is mentoring and how can it help my career?
- What are the benefits of mentoring, in a corporate setting? In a small company/entrepreneurial environment?
- How do I find a mentor?
- How do I become a mentor?
- What's in it for me?
