Our theme for July is MENTOR. Unser Thema im July ist “MENTOR” (Veranstaltungssprache ist Deutsch und Englisch; Foto von Janina Brudy-Weißenborn).

Being a mentor is considered a way of giving back. But mentors get just as much out of the relationship, if not more. Beyond the satisfaction of helping, mentors also learn from their mentees. From a fresh way of looking at established practices to tackling new problems with a beginner’s mind. 

Mentor – More Than Just an Advisor?
According to our speaker Janina Brudy-Weißenborn, mentoring can be the spark that ignites ideas, opens doors and transforms doubt into courage and sometimes gives us a nudge in the right direction.
A great mentor sees not only who we are, but also who we could become. Has there been someone in your life who played this role and how did they influence you? Mentoring is never a one-way street – it can also change your self-image and the way you see others. Let’s come together and talk about the value of mentors—and how each of us might become a mentor ourselves. 

Unsere Speakerin ist Janina Brudy-Weißenborn. She is an entrepreneur, trainer, people and business consultant, mentor and mentee. With over ten years of experience in the fields of Learning & Development and Change Management, she is passionate about fostering personal and organizational growth. Janina has a track record in designing mentoring programs, both as a professional and as someone who values the power of mentorship in her own journey.
