What is the RAHM Mentorship Program?
We are excited to let you know that a handful of our wonderful RAHM members have initiated the RAHM Mentorship Pilot Program. Mentorship offers a huge opportunity to invest in the RAHM community and beyond. By creating opportunities to learn from their real-life experiences, both mentees and mentors are able to cultivate their growth.
Sign up before the 9th of November 2021!

Having been a mentee for the first time 10 years ago has helped me in becoming who I am. Therefore, I now feel it is time to give back and provide others with the same great opportunity!

I am in love with the power and motivation of a strong network, simply can't stop being excited about learning and strive to continuously improve and develop myself and my capabilities - in business and private life. Therefore I am enthusiastic about the idea of sharing knowledge and experiences with others, giving the opportunity to achieve life goals even sooner.

I believe that no matter what other technology humanity develops, one thing will remain true: People still learn best from other people. We all need someone who is a little further along in their journey to share their idiosyncratic lessons for our individual struggles. That's why this program holds so much potential for me. We can connect queer people and allies with others who know what that those specific struggles feel like.

The power of mentoring cannot be underestimated. Reflecting on my career journey for the past decade, I believe I would not have been where I am today without my very own mentors that have guided and inspired me in many different ways. Through mentoring others, I've also learned so much from my mentees and am inspired by them in many different ways. I am so excited to see the impact that the RAHM Mentorship Pilot program will bring for both mentors and mentees.
