I learned about WITAlign from my manager at the time. Because last year I changed my role quite drastically, the idea of becoming a mentee did really come at an amazing time and I chose WITAlign because I highly respected the opinion of the person who told me about it. My conversations with my mentor were such a gift... for my knowledge, for my self esteem, for my voice in my team and even beyond that. Mentorship for me has been about finding my better self and learning my strengths and my moral limits. This was one of the best experiences I have ever had. I understood what I want to accomplish not just professionally, but also through my studies. A big thank you for the entire support of the team. I think the community is about making everyone feel at home and treasured. I would 100% recommend this to anyone who wants to learn more about themselves.

There are certain questions that only someone who has actually been through that process can help you and WIT Align mentorship program fills that gap. Through this program, I believe that I have developed a long-term relationship with my mentor and I would like to recommend it to all women who would want to broaden their network and are looking for an amazing mentor.

This program started at a completely ideal time for me because I was dealing with my first job transition ever in my career. Krista, my mentor, helped me navigate my exit from my old job in a respectful and graceful way, then enter my new role with realistic expectations and an open mind. It didn't take long to realize that my mentor was essentially my work therapist, in the best of ways 🙂 I am extremely grateful for the facilitative, encouraging, and comfortable environment both Krista & the others who organized this program have built. I'll be joining the next round of the program and am excited to see how WIT Align evolves.

Before I was paired with my mentee, I didn’t think of myself as a Mentor because I didn’t think I had the seniority in my career or an ambiguous important-sounding title. It was humbling to realize that we all have wisdom to share through our experiences, such as how we’ve approached decision-making, how we manage our time and how we build our confidence. I have learned so much from working with my mentee, Maya, and it has been a fulfilling and rewarding experience. I look forward to many more great conversations!
