• Nonprofit takes mentoring to a new, international level • “Most of us are mentoring all the time, we just don't realize it” (Total Recorded Time is 17:42) When an organization's leaders give informal but special attention to those with potential but less experience, it's often called mentoring. But can something so informal be organized? Yes, says Deborah Heiser, who leads just such an organization. The Mentor Project began casually when Ms. Heiser, an applied developmental psychologist. talked with a small group of friends about the need to match students with top experts in a vast array of fields, centering on the “STEM” fields of science, technology, engineering and math. The non-profit organization now provides free mentorship to students in elementary school through university. “Most of us are mentoring all the time, we just don't realize it,” Ms. Heiser says. The Mentoring Project, which she co-founded, started small but has grown quickly. “It moved from 10 (mentors) to 60 to 80 to a hundred,” Ms. Heiser says. “Our organization was built on mentors who didn't have a way to connect with mentees,” she says. “We've been doing it for about five years now and we're in five countries.” She says it's not just the students who benefit from the program. “The benefits of mentorship for entrepreneurs is tremendous,” she says. Ms. Heiser is the author of the new book, “The Mentorship Edge,” (Wiley; 1st edition, November 2024). For more information: www.mentorproject.org and www.DeborahHeiser.com

This episode of Connected Leadership Bytes examines the concept of lateral mentoring, a powerful yet often overlooked form of support. Deborah Heiser, PhD, founder of The Mentor Project, introduces the idea that mentoring doesn't always have to be hierarchical. It can be a dynamic exchange of knowledge and experience between peers, even those in different departments or industries. Deborah emphasises the importance of embracing vulnerability and asking for help, even from unexpected sources. She shares real-life examples of how individuals have leveraged lateral mentoring to achieve breakthroughs and launch their careers. Andy and Deborah highlight the benefits of both formal and informal mentoring relationships and how they can complement each other. She also sheds light on the critical role of reverse mentoring, where younger generations mentor older individuals on emerging trends and technologies. Deborah underscores the need for organisations to embrace cross-company and cross-sector mentoring, fostering collaboration and knowledge. The episode concludes with a call to action for listeners to actively seek out mentoring opportunities and recognise that everyone, regardless of their position, can benefit from both giving and receiving mentorship. Key takeaways from the episode: · Lateral mentoring is a powerful form of support that can come from peers, even those in different departments or industries. · Embrace vulnerability and ask for help from unexpected sources. Every connection is useful. · Formalise lateral mentoring relationships to make them more effective and focused. · Don't underestimate the value of reverse mentoring, where younger generations mentor older individuals on emerging trends. · Embrace cross-company and cross-sector mentoring to foster collaboration and knowledge sharing. · Recognise theimportance of both giving and receiving mentorship.

Send us a textFor this episode of Brewstilled, Deborah Heiser returns to discuss her program the Mentor Project and her upcoming book the Mentorship Edge. In this episode of Brewstilled, I discuss the value of mentoring with Deborah and how mentoring can help people move forward in life while also moving society forward into the future.

Let's delve into a thought-provoking question. What's your relationship with the word 'connection '? Whose opinions do you value when you seek out guidance? When you have to make a big decision, is there someone you value and trust? Mentorship, a crucial aspect of personal and professional growth, is often undervalued. According to Mentorloop, 76% of people believe mentors are important, yet only 37% have one. This gap is significant and underscores the need for more mentorship opportunities. Across the nation, 86% of children ages 6 to 17 have at least one adult mentor in their school, neighborhood, or community who provides advice or guidance, according to the 2022 National Survey of Children's Health. Deborah Heiser, Ph.D., is an Applied Developmental Psychologist specializing in midlife and beyond and is redefining what life after 40 looks and feels like.
