Join Tiana and Headmistress Jill for Making Mentoring Connections, a workshop about establishing mentoring relationships, whether you're seeking to mentor someone or be mentored. We're meeting at Elevate Community Lab in Broadway Auto Park, 303 S. Broadway, Wichita, Kansas.
About the event: Working with an influential mentor can be life-changing. Sharing your influence by mentoring others changes the world by showing women how to lead and succeed. Coming together to help each other grow is powerful, important work. Join Headmistress Jill and her co-teacher Tiana Hartwell, founder of the youth-led initiative EmpowHER Project, to explore what type of mentoring commitment works for you, how to initiate a connection, and practical tips for establishing a successful mentoring relationship, whether you're seeking to mentor someone or be mentored.
