Closing registrations to the CWF 2019 mentoring programs
Dear CWF Members,
Today marks the closing day for registering to the CWF mentoring programs.
We aim to match high-potential women with senior executive mentors. Mentoring is one of the most efficient activities for the individual’s personal and professional growth. A privileged relationship develops between the Mentee and Mentor, usually a person with broad experience in an area the Mentee would like to develop in. The Mentor brings a new perspective to the Mentee and provides her with a base to her reflections, to reach her specific development goals. The Mentee could aspire to the same king of professional role as the Mentor. She could want to expand specific skills for her career advancement: self-confidence, financial mastery, leadership, etc. Her goal could also be to expand her network in a specific area the Mentor is well introduced in.
The CWF offers two different mentoring programs.
Members can participate to one program only per year.
You can find the details of each program below.
If you have any questions, or comments please do not hesitate to contact us at administration@cwf.ch.
Yours Sincerely,
The CWF Team
