Event description
Inspire our students to achieve their dreams.
Business leaders participate in a series of short, focused conversations about specific career questions and topics. Business leaders meet a limited number of mentees in 10-minute time slots each.
These encounters should be set up as a student-led, ‘carousel’-style activity, where groups of students move between different business leaders, with pre-prepared quick-fire questions.
Speed mentoring offers students the opportunity to ask meaningful questions to a range of different business leaders, to gain an insight into their working life and receive advice on the skills that are needed to be successful in today’s economy.
We are holding a Future Focus Day for our year12 students. The final hour of the day will be a speed networking event for students to engage with a variety of Business people to find out about the various Career opourtunities that are available to them.
The more voluteers we can get the better for our students so that we can provide them with a wide range.
