As part of National Mentoring Day on 27 October 2023 we invite you to join our mentoring community at Sussex. Mentoring is a powerful tool for professional and personal growth and provides many benefits for both mentor and mentee. As a mentor you will not only expand your networks but you will also benefit from developing and growing a range of skills including active listening, asking great questions, reinforcing your knowledge, self-reflection and much more. Don’t just take our word for it, in his blog, Ed Jenkins talks about how his experience of mentoring made him more self-reflective and effective in his work, or read one of our many case studies from our community.

We are passionate about growing our network of mentors to be as rich and diverse as it can be - if you or anyone you know are interested please join our next Effective Skills for Mentors workshop which will upskill you in the key foundation skills to enable you to thrive as a mentor, and give you access to our newly launched MentorNet tool making it quick and simple to make meaningful matches across Sussex. We also have an established Community of Practice enabling regular opportunities to share successes, challenges and continue to develop with peers. So come and join our community and begin your journey is this highly rewarding practice, register for our next Effective Skills for Mentors workshop now to unlock your potential as a mentor!
