With a peer support model as the foundation for this program, our Executive Director Mentorship provides safe and non-judgemental mentorship to those navigating this unique and challenging role as a new Executive Director in the social profit sector. We intentionally pair new Executive Directors (mentees) with experienced Executive Director’s (mentors) and create the opportunity to focus on operational capacity building and together tackle the complex challenges that many in this role face. Matching mentor’s strengths with mentee’s goals allows for a meaningful and effective mentoring relationship. Mentors and mentees are responsible for setting meeting times and locations, identifying priority areas for discussion and deciding on how they wish to work with one another, creating a collaborative and engagement environment for the duration of the mentorship.
