"I love this quote from Denzel Washington, 'Show me a successful individual and I’ll show you someone who had real positive influences in his or her life. I don’t care what you do for a living—if you do it well, I’m sure there was someone cheering you on or showing the way. A mentor.' I’ve been a mentor for people from different parts of the world for the last 7 years and i can say that this is a deeply enriching experience. Working across cultures is rewarding both for the mentor and the mentee as they get to improve not only communication, flexibility, adaptation, agility, but also reframing, seeing things from different perspectives, leading in a multicultural environment, getting messages accross while being tolerant, inclusive. I highly recommend the International Mentoring Program at PWN Global." Georgeta Dendrino |
Some of the characteristics we expect from a mentee are:
The International Mentoring Programme will also offer you various occasions to leverage your mentoring experience. For instance, you will be trained as a mentee and receive a Mentee Toolkit.

INVESTMENT: The fee to take part in the International Mentoring Programme is € 200, payable prior to the start of the program.
CLOSING DATE: Application for our 2024 Programme will close on 23rd February 2024.
Kindly take a moment to complete the questionnaire. We will be collecting questionnaires until the closing date on February 23rd to ensure an optimal pairing between mentees and mentors. After the closing date, we will pair you with a mentor and you will be contacted accordingly.

CLOSING DATE: Application for our 2024 Programme will close on 23rd February 2024.
Your International Mentoring Program will last for 8 months, from Mid-March 2024 and will close (at the latest) and the end of November 2024. It requires a minimum of a two-hours per month commitment from participants.
Although, the mentoring pairs will be completely free to organize themselves, we recommend that you meet virtually once every 4 to 6 weeks, which means 4 to 6 times in total. The duration of your meetings is up to you. From our experience, an effective meeting may last between 45 and 90 minutes. We suggest you use platforms such as Microsoft Teams or Zoom. Videoconferencing helps to create a stronger bond as you will be able to see each other. You may also exchange emails, text messages in-between meetings.
Join your local PWN City Network Mentoring Programme. PWN provides an effective mentoring structure to ensure that you get the most out of your mentoring experience, by calling upon a wide range of mentors, ensuring the best possible match for you, and following up on your progress through the mentoring cycle to ensure that the experience is a positive one.
