Back Youself Mentoring

What Does A Mentor Offer?

"I wanted to find a mentor as I wanted an objective opinion of decisions I was making with my career and my life. My job is quite broad and I found it difficult to pinpoint what exactly I wanted to do and how I wanted to grow within that role.

I also felt it would be a great way to have a conversation with someone who has gone through different milestones in their career and life, how to master the work/life balance and introduce me to new ways of thinking about problems and challenges."

Mentee 2018. Head of Communications.
