Mentorship scheme
The Future Faces Mentoring scheme first launched in October 2022, since then we have matched over 115 mentees and mentors. The impact on young professional’s careers, professional development, confidence and personal development has been incredible.
The scheme helps Future Faces members be matched with a mentor for 6 months. Mentors and mentees organise their meetings monthly across 6 months, working on their objectives, aspirations, and career goals together. We’ve had some incredible feedback already.
So don’t miss out, whether you’re a Future Faces member or a Senior Leader who would like to volunteer their time to support, we are so excited for the journey you are about to embark on!
Some of the best advice I've ever received is from a mentor. An individual who had experienced what I was about to.
A credible person that actively listened to me, showed empathy, and was honest. And I'll never forget moments like that.
It's why I love mentoring others and therefore delighted to be a part of the Future Faces scheme. If I am able to encourage and empower others to develop, or to identify and achieve career goals, whilst correcting gaps in their (and my own) generic skills and knowledge, and then increase their confidence along the way, then my world becomes a better place.
I do this as much for them as I do it for myself.
The mentorship programme so far has been a brilliant experience. There has been excellent support for us as Mentors, with an online workshop about how to mentor effectively and get the best from the process, as well as a really insightful and engaging social event where we got to learn more about each other and the benefits of the scheme.
My mentee and I have been brilliantly matched based on our experience and challenges and I can't wait to see what we both achieve at the end of our 6 months together.
