Hello Toastmasters,
We have a new member, which means we need a new mentor. If you want to be a
mentor and can do the following, please let me know. I can also answer any
questions. My goal is to have Revathy paired with her mentor by next
meeting so please respond quickly.
1. Agree to mentor for six months.
2. Meet within two weeks of new member joining.
3. Meet at least once a month throughout the six months.
4. Go over mentee goals. I am including the questions/form I created,
but you can adapt them as you see fit.
5. Use levels 1 and 3 from the Mentoring Path in Pathways as a guideline
– this is mainly to see the expectations of Toastmasters and have access to
the supporting worksheets.*
* The level three project in Pathways is being a mentor for six months.
This project will fulfill it, but I believe to get credit you would need to
give a speech. Technically in Pathways, you would also need to do the
second level which is to mentor someone for a single project. However, as
the details of our mentoring program are still in progress, there are a lot
of skilled and experienced Toastmasters at FRTM, and to ensure all new
members have a mentor within a few weeks of joining, I am currently
skipping this step to streamline the process.
Thanks,
Kathleen
