➡️ Reach out to Julie to secure your mentee spots by Friday, March 28th

The cohort includes talent from a variety of levels, and we design mentoring pods to feature diverse ranges. This ensures a mix of perspectives, which adds tremendous value for both mentors and mentees.
Mentors are carefully selected from a pool of highly qualified individuals after mentees are confirmed. This allows us to prioritize matching within the same location whenever possible.
At the start of the relationship, each pod creates a mentoring contract to decide on the structure and format that work best for everyone. Mentors meet with the entire pod collectively at least once a month, but pods can choose to meet more frequently and include 1-on-1 sessions if they prefer.
Building rapport takes time, and we provide a framework to help mentors foster a safe and supportive environment. Additionally, we offer resources to spark meaningful conversations and encourage collaboration between mentors and mentees.
Many mentors remain in touch with their mentees after the program. Additionally, we’ve introduced a Mentee Alumni community, which gathers on a quarterly basis to foster ongoing connections.

Hear from our previous program participants

"The open and honest conversations between mentor and mentees made each session a fun and valuable learning opportunity. We talked about ways to overcome both internal and external obstacles (such as imposter syndrome or cultural diversity) that might have prevented us from progressing in our careers."

Polly Lee - Mentee
"I benefited from the opportunity to discover new perspectives - we were related to each other as Asians yet we were so different. The opportunity to share stories was self-reflective and helped me "see" myself in the eyes of others around me."

Alyssa Yoong - Mentee
“I was a mentor to three brilliant up-and-coming professionals who came to every session with questions, ideas, and solutions. By the end of the mentoring program, we grew together as individuals and as a team. It was an absolute pleasure being part of the program and I highly recommend it to both mentors and mentees."

Ameer Ali - Mentor
“I found the program to be both informative and practical, especially for the topics on professional soft skills and personal growth challenges, and I have already started applying some of the strategies and tips in my work and personal life."

Jane Jiang - Mentee
