A Word from the Mentees. Feedback on the Mentoring Program Launch - Lindita Komani (Jade)

During the working sessions on December 11th, I felt very happy to having received this very nice Christmas present from my network (JADE). The passionate manner in which Ms Samman and Ms Bonfiglioli conducted the event and the wise contributions of the participants made me feel that this is going to be a unique experience for everybody. I began reflecting on how to make also other JADE members benefit from it and while leaving the event I already had an idea in my mind, which I will shortly present as follows.

The JADE representatives in this mentoring program in cooperation with leaders and mentors, as well as with JADE Executive Board organize a workshop series about the New Working Environments where gender diversity has brought to successful developments.

Participants of this workshop would be young men and women of our JADE network who should have the possibility to learn about the impact that the inclusion of women in the decision making process has had in business, political and academic world.

The rationale for this workshop series would be: Trends in the entrepreneurial and management world show that in the middle and long run we all will be living in a society in which feeling comfortable in working together with women in the course of decision making processes, will be a competitive advantage in the job market. JADE network delivers a good example on how naturally young women have been integrated in the decision making process at local, national and international level. And it is reasonable to predict that many of these young women and young men, who have working with them, will be leaders of tomorrow. They all have now experiences that they can share with colleagues and outsiders. The results of this workshop series can be brought together in a booklet that can be distributed to enterprises, not-for-profit organizations, governments, international institutions with the aim to support their gender diversity programs.

This mentoring program has the chance to help shaping this future and I think this initial proposal on which can be further built upon, would represent an interesting extension for this mentoring program. I would be glad to deal with this topic also in future; therefore I hope that this first proposal will be welcomed.

I would like to conclude this feedback letter with special thanks to the initiators of this mentoring program, to the mentors and the mentees.

Looking forward to meeting you soon,

Lindita Komani
