I want to be a mentee because the Mentorship program is a fantastic way to familiarize with the school and meeting people with other background. Obviously, as an incoming freshman, I do not know much people, so the Mentorship program as a chance to break the ice and to make connections in school and among peers.

Mentors serve as a confidant, counselor, guide and advisor to a participant. They share an understanding of the organization, its mission, and the formal and informal operating processes, and share experiences which contributed to their own success, setting an example for the participant to follow.

I wanted to give you an update on the process underway to identify mentors for the upcoming Beacon intern group. After getting feedback from the current group of interns and mentors, we determined a little different approach for this year. As you recall, last year, SLT identified a number of potential mentors; along with HRBP’s; we then checked to see if they had interest and confirmed approval with their leaders. We selected a final diverse group primarily based on HRBP feedback and our own personal knowledge of the individuals. We were really pleased with the outcomes. There were a couple of the mentors that just weren’t the right fit for the intern and struggled a bit connecting –however that certainly could happen again but it did help us to think
