“A successful mentoring programme can make a significant difference to the ability of

young entrepreneurs to succeed in business.”

The Mentoring Specialist Track will have a strong focus on knowledge sharing, exploring

good practice and networking. To this end, the Mentoring Specialist Track will consist of the

making a successful match

mentoring innovations

iii. Sessions to build and strengthen the mentoring community to enable on-going

knowledge and experience sharing

iv. An overview of the YBI mentoring offering to members – what we have accomplished to date, where we hope to be whilst inviting feedback from members on where we should

focus our efforts

v. Opportunities to meet with organisations external to the network who operate as

specialists in the field of mentoring

By the end of the week it is anticipated that colleagues will have:

A stronger sense of being part of a global mentoring community

Developed relationships with fellow mentoring practitioners by sharing experiences

and learning from one another

An increased awareness about mentoring innovations, challenges and successes

taking place within and external to the network
