OVERVIEW OF OUR MENTORING PROGRAM PROGRAM TIMING AND STRUCTURE The WA chapter of ICON is proud to launch our inaugural reverse, cross-industry mentoring program to match professionals aspiring to leadership with established senior leaders, to help build a culture of inclusive leadership across our membership. The program will run from October 2017 to December 2018. We recommend mentors and mentees should meet at least once a quarter in person. The suggested length of each meeting is one hour. This meeting can be arranged as is suitable for the mentor and mentee- perhaps catch up over coffee. Additional communication may include phone or email interaction, as agreed. RULES AND ETHICS Mentors and mentees should: Take turns shouting coffee during the meetings. Provide at least 24 hours' notice when moving an agreed meeting. Respect confidentiality surrounding every meeting and communication. Refrain from engaging in unprofessional, dishonest, unlawful or discriminatory conduct (goes without saying). Contact your ICON WA chair if you have any concerns during the program. MENTORING PROGRAM | ICON WA | 2017 THE INFLUENCE, COLLABORATION & OPPORTUNITY NETWORK FOR B2B PROFESSIONALS
