How a Mentor Walk Works
Share what’s on
your mind
When you book, tell us the career question or direction you’d like to explore.
We thoughtfully match
the group
We match you with an experienced woman leader and up to two other women whose perspectives will support a meaningful conversation.
Walk and talk
together
Meet outdoors and spend one focused hour walking side by side, discussing your question and workshopping ideas.
Leave with clarity and capability
Walk away with clearer thinking, practical next steps, new connections and the confidence that comes from being part of a supportive community.
The Conversations Women Bring —
and What They Take Away
Here are some of the questions women in Sydney brought to their mentor conversations.
"I am at a career crossroads and trying to work out which direction to go next, and aligned with that is finding my next opportunity.
My mentor provided solid techniques to work through some career questions. I realized board roles might not be what I’m looking for. Need to work through a long-term strategy and then execute."
⎯ Lynn, Sydney mentee
"How to productively work with different work styles?
I learned from my mentor that to be a leader, even a pseudo leader, the key focus is to check in often and provide positive feedback and reinforcement, focusing on people's gifts and uplifting them with that."
⎯ Jia, Sydney mentee
"I'm looking for my next job and I want to discuss my career goals.
Definitely opened my eyes and shifted my thinking. I got more clarity on how I need to get out of my bubble and make small steps."
⎯ Michelle, Sydney mentee
"I want to move into a new sector and type of work. I am experienced with going into new sectors and thriving, but I'm older than I used to be.
I received some great practical suggestions to refine my next steps. I was reminded that I got to tell the story of what I've done to date - by this time in my career, that is many things. So draw together the ones I like best that I want to move forward with in alignment with what's next."
⎯ Louise, Sydney mentee
