Why do you want to be a mentor?
I am passionate about giving back and helping others to grow. I strongly believe that true success is when we all succeed together. We have a lot of budding, aspiring and pivoting project management professionals that needed guidance and information on how to find their feet, navigate, and grow their career in this industry. Over the last couple of years, there has been an influx of immigrants who are in the project management industry and they need mentors to support them.
