The ESMT MentorMap

ESMT believes in establishing a community, one that fosters our four pillars – Connect, Learn, Grow and Impact.

The ESMT MentorMap offers a unique opportunity to connect mentees with mentors who can provide guidance, support, and insights into their career paths and professional development. 

Our goal is to foster personal and professional growth and development for our mentees by providing guidance, sharing relevant experiences, and offering valuable insights. This program is open not only to our current students but also to alumni who seek guidance from more experienced professionals, our faculty and staff.

How can I join the ESMT MentorMap?

The first edition of this program was launched in November 2024 and is currently running until April 2025. Next round of the program will be launched in September 2025.

Why is this program valuable?

Who can be a Mentor?

ESMT’s newest graduates, seasoned alumni, faculty and staff alike can serve as mentors, having effectively and successfully navigated the challenges of their professional lives, and now being able to offer valuable guidance to others. 

Remember: there’s no such thing as being “too young” to be a mentor; each of us has unique insights to offer. This is also a valuable way to develop your people management skills, preparing you for greater roles and deeper connections in your career.

Who can be a Mentee?

Anyone can be a mentee. Current students, alumni and staff seeking guidance from an experienced professional with similar interests, skills, and career paths can become mentees.
