In this session, Nick Simms FBCI and some of his current mentees, including Anoushka Chati AMBCI and Jenny Beck AMBCI, discuss how the BCI Mentoring process is working for them.
Topics will include how and why they found each other, what they have gained from the process so far, how they hope to benefit from the process in the future, and how the process could be improved. There will be plenty of time for Questions & Answers.
We look forward to welcoming you!
