Preparing to launch a business: Michaela & Tereza's mentoring experience

Are you afraid of change? Get a mentor to help you fight it! This could be the message of the interview with one of our mentees Tereza Svedova and her mentor Michaela Kloudová, the founder & CEO of Genster. Misa not only guided Terka in leaving her comfortable job in finance into the unknown world of start-ups, but she also introduced her to its Czech community. And all of that despite being very skeptical about mentoring in the first place. Thank you for putting your trust in Femme Palette.

Mentee & Mentor Experience

My heart is full of gratitude for being able to speak and to share the mentoring journey of our mentee Laura Kressmann, the Global Ad Operations Manager at PlayStation, with her mentor Sherry Bennett, the Founder and Executive Director at Sherry Bennett Media Services. The unique connection and mutual respect these two have is beyond inspiring. They are a living example that mentoring can change lives and prove that, if I could borrow Laura’s words, ‘the best thing you can do for yourself is to connect with a mentor.’
