Generally, only people who are subscribed to our membership plan can be mentors or mentees. But, we also have Ambassadors and other top-level execs who join as just mentors.
It's entirely up to you! You set the pace based on what you're comfortable with. Whether you can only commit an hour a week or a month, that's perfectly fine.
Not at all. You choose which days you want to speak with your mentor. So, you can certainly choose a Monday to Friday schedule, or add in weekends if you prefer.
We use a matching algorithm to help pair mentors and mentees.
The algorithm pairs people across the whole program using your chosen criteria. This helps reduce unconscious bias and makes it easy to create strong matches at scale.
No worries - sometimes the first match isn't the right fit.
If that happens, you can be paired up with a new match in the next matching cycle.
Most of the communication can take place in the chat room when you become a pair on the platform - including the first meeting. Then, you're welcome to meet again however you prefer going forward.
Absolutely! Being an expert in one area doesn't mean you can't improve in another.
