While developing and facilitating mentorship programs at Toronto Metropolitan University, I’ve seen hundreds of students benefit from a direct connection to a mentor in career, academic or personal development settings. Formal and informal mentors have also made a significant positive impact on my own career, whether they were directly advising me or serving as a relatable and compassionate outlet for my concerns.
The right mentor can provide a valuable look inside your industry of interest, encourage you and help you recognize your strengths and areas for improvement at any stage in your professional journey. Mentorship could be exactly what you need to take the next step in your career—and finding a mentor is easier than you might think.
