ProfDev: Mentors Make a Difference: Build Your Personal Board of Directors
Attend this session to learn what to look for in a mentor and how to build rapport with the people you admire. Rather than focus on finding a single mentor, we will discuss how to build your “Personal Board of Directors,” a team of advocates who hold you accountable and share their experience to help you achieve your goals. The success of these relationships resides in the ability of you, the mentee, to “manage up.” Learn how to maximize these opportunities by being prepared and respectfully persistent. Join us for this insightful professional development opportunity with tips on building the lifelong skills and practice of good mentor/mentee relationships!
ABOUT OUR PRESENTER
Robbie Samuels has been recognized as a networking expert by Inc. and Lifehacker, and profiled in Stand Out: How to Find Your Breakthrough Idea and Build a Following Around It by Dorie Clark. Since 2009, his engaging and fun presentations have helped a wide array of audiences increase their confidence when it comes to building their professional network and strong, welcoming communities. He passionately believes everyone should stop wasting time networking and shares how through his signature session, “Art of the Schmooze.”
He is the host of On the Schmooze, his podcast about leadership, career challenges, work/life balance, and building a professional network - www.OntheSchmooze.com.
In 2006, he founded Socializing for Justice (SoJust.org) to build a cross-cultural, cross-issue progressive community and network in Boston based on the philosophies of abundance and radical inclusion. In 2011, in recognition of his social justice work, Boston City Council named his birthday “Robbie Samuels Day." Learn more about his work and get connected at www.RobbieSamuels.com.
