Students are paired with a mentor they can engage with about their master&#8217;s program as well as careers in public policy and international development. The program cohort members meet regularly to discuss professional development topics to supplement the mentoring experience.<\/p>\n<p>No matter how mentoring is defined or delivered, graduate student mentees identify three qualities as essential to a successful relationship with a mentor:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>open, clear and effective communication<\/li>\n<li>honest feedback about their work\/performance\/skills<\/li>\n<li>feeling supported through challenges<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Mentoring can be a powerful and rewarding development experience for both mentor and mentee.\u202f As a mentor, you will be able to share\u00a0your experiences with students as they navigate the path from their master&#8217;s programs to careers after Sanford.<\/p>\n<h2><strong><u>Expectations<\/u><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Mentors are responsible for meeting with their mentee for at minimum three times throughout the program cycle (\u201cMeeting\u201d = emails, phone calls, texts, video chats, or in-person meetings if possible). One meeting is required before January 2024.<\/p>\n<p>The Mentoring Program leadership team provides regular communication, enrichment materials, and, when requested, personal consultation to support and facilitate the mentor\/mentee relationships.
