Testimonials from Mentors 2023
“I originally volunteered to be a mentor as a way of 'giving back' for all the positive experiences I have had at Monash. Once again, I was the beneficiary as I gained as much as I gave. It can be easy to forget the challenge of being new or different or inexperienced. Being reminded of this has improved my own work.”
"I joined the program as a mentor and I'm eternally grateful for the connections I have made as part of the Staff Mentoring Program. I have gained insight into the culture and my mentees were a joy to work with. I can safely say that being a mentor has enriched my own work and helped inform my own goals within my team and I would absolutely recommend this program to others considering becoming a mentor.”
"After benefiting from the 2021 Program as a Mentee, this year I joined as a Mentor. It was a terrific way to connect and learn about another part of our workplace via my Mentee. I enjoyed talking deeply about complex topics such as stakeholder management, working across invisible boundaries and navigating difficult people. It was a welcome change of pace to daily BAU and I look forward to participating again in the future."
