Speaking in Rotary

The aim for the evening was to talk about mentoring. I was given 50 minutes, and tried to use it wisely.

My topic was:

1. What is mentoring

2. What is a mentor program

3. Tools to use

4. What´s in it for me (mentee, mentor and company)

We used some time to get to know the terms and the meening of mentoring, mentee and mentor.

The responce was great and a lot of questions about how we can use mentoring f.ex. in schools. Bec

au

se in Norway we have a lot of students dropping out at the age 16-18 years old. And they seems to think that mentoring could solve some of that problem.

I think it´s a great idea. A lot of the schools in Europe us mentoring for their students. And I don´t know why the different schools would like to try that.

My hope for the future is that they use the professors more as a mentor. And maybe then the students will stay in school.

 "Our emotions need to be as educated as our intellect. It is important to know how to feel, how to respond, and how to let life in so that it can touch you." —Jim Rohn

 

That is my key words when I am going to have a workshop at the Norwegian Rotary Organisation the 27. of september. And I will use mentoring as the great tool it is.
