MENTEES
Who benefits from this programme
The programme is designed for professional women in specialist or management positions – and for those preparing to take the next step in their careers. It speaks to women who are ready to take on responsibility, expand their influence, and actively shape their professional path.
Where participants are in their career journey
Whether you are at the beginning of your career or already have several years of experience, leadership experience is not required. The focus lies on personal and professional growth through practical workshops and strength-based training in German. Regular participation is recommended to make the most of the exchange and collective learning experience. Age is not a determining factor.
What the programme offers
Fresh leadership perspectives, stronger strategic impact, and clear positioning within the company – this programme equips participants with the tools to pursue their ambitions with confidence. It provides space to consciously navigate career goals, broaden perspectives, and strengthen personal impact in a sustainable way.
MENTORS
Who qualifies as a mentor
This programme is designed for experienced leaders with at least 15 years of professional experience, including a minimum of 7 years in a management role. Mentors are recognised experts in their field, have a strong professional network, and are eager to share their knowledge purposefully to support mentees on their career journey.
What mentors bring to the table
Mentors already take on responsibility within teams, projects, or organisations. They are open-minded, reflective, and willing to share their insights. A genuine interest in guiding, advising, and empowering mentees is essential. Previous mentoring experience is not required, and the time commitment can be adapted to individual availability.
What the programme offers mentors
The programme creates a platform for meaningful exchange with committed mentees, offers the opportunity to share expertise, and enables mentors to actively contribute to developing the next generation of female leaders.
Interviews digital
Ahead of the programme, we take time for individual 30-minute conversations with each mentee, mentor, and female mentor. This helps us truly understand their strengths, ambitions, and goals — and create meaningful, well-matched mentoring partnerships.
Get 2 Know digital
Both mentees and mentors take part in a digital introductory session designed to ease initial nervousness, align expectations, and provide useful guidance for a great start to the mentoring journey.
Pitch Perfect digital
In the digital “Pitch Perfect” session, mentees learn to present themselves authentically and with impact — making a memorable impression in just a few minutes. The session also helps ease first nerves and prepares them for the kick-off event, where they can introduce themselves through short videos.
CROSS MENTORING Compass
Before matching, mentees and mentors meet in an open setting to exchange ideas on leadership and mentoring. The event sparks first connections, encourages dialogue, and sets the stage for strong mentoring partnerships.
KICK-OFF
The ceremonial launch of our programme — our beloved “Herzblatt” event — is a moment of excitement and anticipation. It’s when we reveal the tandems for the first time and officially begin the shared mentoring journey.
GALLUP StrengthsFinder digital
Using the GALLUP StrengthsFinder, mentees identify and build on their unique strengths, gaining clarity about what sets them apart and fuels their professional success.
Strengths coaching
In this session, mentees are coached to enhance their role and gather valuable insights for the rest of the mentoring journey. A subsequent meetup offers space to connect, exchange experiences, and learn from one another.
Mentor´s Meetup digital
This online session is all about networking — a space to connect, exchange insights, and find new inspiration for your mentoring journey.
Career Roadmap 1.0 – Reflect and Position yourself
During two immersive workshop days, mentees take a deep look at their career journey, set clear goals, and design actionable steps for their professional future — guided by their own values and ambitions.
CROSS MENTORING Pit Stop
In guided group reflections, tandems review their journey so far and set intentions for the second half of the mentoring period. A relaxed meetup afterwards provides room for connection, inspiration, and networking.
Mentor´s Meetup
A mentor from the current CROSS MENTORING programme takes the lead in hosting this event — creating space for personal networking, dialogue, and genuine exchange.
Presence & Confidence
In this workshop, mentees explore how voice, presence, and appearance shape their professional impact. They learn how to strengthen their personal brand, cultivate authentic visibility, and present themselves with confidence — gaining greater self-assurance and presence in their daily work.
Career Roadmap 2.0 – Presence, Profile, Personality
In this workshop, mentees craft a personal strategy to enhance their presence, sharpen their professional profile, and consciously leverage their impact in a meaningful way.
Meet "the Schirmfrau"
The "Schrimfrau" shares inspiring insights from her world — personal experiences, reflections, and motivating impulses. This encounter opens space for dialogue, connection, and fresh perspectives.
Career Take Off
What started with celebration concludes in the same spirit. The closing event of CROSS MENTORING marks the festive finale of an inspiring year of growth and connection. Together, we reflect on the journey so far and look ahead to new horizons. For the mentees, it’s not an ending — it’s the beginning of a new chapter, a springboard into the future.
NEW – For all mentees
Oura Ring
Next Level Leadership – with Mental Health
Our mentees now receive an Oura Ring, the intelligent health tracker that provides valuable insights into stress, sleep, and performance — helping them lead with greater balance and awareness.
- Understand your stress – nd discover how resilience empowers you to lead with greater impact.
- Longevity meets wellbeing – because lasting performance begins with lasting self-care.
- Focus on your fitness goals – and find the clarity, energy, and balance you need to lead with strength.
- Understand women’s health in all its facets – rom the menstrual cycle to sleep rhythms and regeneration..
- Great leadership begins with leading yourself. When you are rested, focused, and mindful, you lead with greater impact.
