Mentorship

Welcome to the OBTA business travel mentorship program!

This structured program is designed to: 

• Match a mentor to a mentee requesting coaching on their career
• Offer support to help you both get the most out of the relationship

What’s in it for you? 

Mentees can discuss topics and glean advice surrounding:

• Career aspirations and progression
• Effective networking
• Influencing others
• Time management
• Work/life balance
• Leadership development
• Recent successes and failures

Mentors can guide their mentee and are expected to:

• Help transform the career of your mentee
• Ask questions of mentee to deepen discussions
• Listen to mentee and help mentee develop their thought process
• Challenge the mentee’s way of thinking
• Help identify skill gaps
• Identify and facilitate development opportunities
• Support mentee during challenging assignments
• Be a sponsor (provide visibility to mentee)
• Be open, honest, and constructive
• Clearly state your time availability
• Ensure confidentiality

What’s required from you? 

The mentor role should not involve a significant time commitment – we anticipate a time commitment of approximately an hour a month, over 9 months.
