A Mentor’s Perspective

chyeneoMentors are the x-factor in any leadership program and LeadWomen’s decision to pair potential talent with qualified leaders make all the difference in the WIL journey. The experience shared shines a light into areas that are often camouflaged by conditioning and the environment we operate in.

I believe my mentee has gained through our interactions and I am glad to have contributed positively to her career aspirations. I know I gained from the engagement.”

Testimonials from Past Participants

  • Penny Yaw,

    I gained valuable insight through the WIL MY program. I have learnt that staying in my comfort zone is the easier and safer option but may not be best for me.  A key takeaway from my relationship with my mentor is the importance to push the boundaries beyond my comfort zone. Our conversations were thought provoking and challenging, empowering me with the confidence to move forward.
