Career support for development
A study by Perspetivo, conducted on behalf of Women for Leaders in 2023, showed that many women feel uncertain about their career direction and that mentorship is one of the most important forms of support for women aiming for leadership positions. It is one of many studies indicating that mentorship programmes are among the most effective career development tools for empowering women and non-binary individuals and increasing their opportunities for progression.
Q Mentoria is Consid’s mentorship programme where women and non-binary individuals can apply to be matched with a mentor, one of our employees, to support their personal and professional development. Over a three-month period, each mentor/mentee pair sets their own goals and visions, and schedules regular follow-up meetings. The primary purpose of Q Mentoria is to facilitate an exchange of experiences, allowing both mentor and mentee to develop and grow.
Unique matchmaking
After the application period, during which both mentors and mentees can apply to participate in Q Mentoria, the pairs are matched based on their preferences, skills and interests. The matching process is carried out manually by a selected group at Consid who review each application to ensure the best possible pairing. Once the decisions have been made, all participants are notified and the mentorship can begin.
To ensure that the relationship between mentor and mentee is built on trust, it is important that their conversations take place in an open and supportive environment. For this reason, all discussions are confidential, encouraging a trusting and constructive relationship.
