Get a mentor and progress in your career

I was made redundant on the same day I received the email letting me know you have found my mentor. Within 6 weeks I got an offer, and started in my new company little over 2 months after the mentoring sessions with Tony started. Forever grateful for all his guidance and support.

I signed up for the mentorship program when I was at a crossroad in my career. I knew I wanted to change my career path, but I didn’t know what or how. From the get-go my mentor, Michaela, worked with me to discover my vision and find the clarity that I needed.  Michaela asked the hard questions that pushed me to think about what it is I truly wanted out of my professional career, and most importantly, why. But more than anything, having a mentor who was caring, understanding, and genuinely wanted the best for me made me feel safe and supported.

Over the 12 mentoring sessions, I have learnt and developed in many aspects of my career and personal life. Through the program, my mentor has helped me switch careers successfully, grow confidently and improve on my overall personal development with increased focus and ambition. It’s a wonderful experience to learn from the experience of my mentor and have the support and guidance, especially when switching careers and starting from the beginning again.

It's finally nice to have a role-model and also a cheerleader in one person, who believes in you, wants the best for you, leads you in new places and shows you the world of options. And who understands you. I am happy for that!
