Tech Leaders is a four-month free mentoring program initiated by the Women in Technology Association. It is aimed at women who want to develop their competences and skills in programming, user experience, artificial intelligence, project management or running a business.
Any woman can apply to participate in Tech Leaders! What matters is enthusiasm, willingness to learn and develop. Participants are given the opportunity to individually cooperate with a mentor of their choice, indicated at the recruitment stage. Then the mentors from the submitted applications select the mentee whom they will consult.
“Mentoring at this point is the most effective form of learning and most importantly, it brings benefits to both cooperating parties; mentee develops its potential using the mentor's experience, and the mentor feels satisfaction, prestige and stimulates his creativity. The whole process is built on trust and relationship, ”explains Judyta Wolak from the Women in Technology Poland Association.
The popularity and rapid development of the Tech Leaders program well illustrate the power of the IT environment, its effectiveness and readiness to share knowledge. Over 250 participants took part in previous editions. The huge number of incoming applications shows that many women appreciate and perfectly understand the unique development opportunity offered by the model of one-to-one expert consultations. Although it seems less obvious, the program is also very popular among mentors who are willing to share their experience and knowledge supporting the progress of the participants.
