Do you have tips to build a solid communication channel with my mentor?

Yes! As the mentee, we ask you to  lead in defining your relationship boundaries, meeting agenda, communication channels, meeting dates, defining what makes this relationship safe for you, work style, etc.

In particular, we recommend that you ask your mentor re: the frequency of your meetings and her preferred channels of communication. Some mentors stick to a monthly meeting schedule with recurring calendar invitations and set agendas. Others may be open to constant WhatsApp banter and bi-weekly meetings.
