Overview
The Fortune/U.S. State Department Global Women’s Mentoring Partnership connects talented, emerging women leaders from all over the world, who are between the ages of 25-43, with members of Fortune’s Most Powerful Women Leaders for a four-week-long program.
Details
The program begins with an orientation in Washington, D.C., where mentees meet with senior women leaders in government, business, academia, civil society and the media. Participants are then paired with one of Fortune’s Most Powerful Women Leaders from companies like Time Inc., Google, Inc., and Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. in cities across the United States. At the end of the mentorship, emerging leaders reconvene in New York City to collectively reflect on their experience and discuss future leadership opportunities.
Program Length: Four weeks
For both the American businesswomen and international mentees the professional and personal ties that grow out of the mentoring relationships extend well beyond the program, and enable them to see their sectors and countries in a new light. In 2018, over 83% of participants continued to receive useful business advice and encouragement from their mentors that strengthened their businesses after the conclusion of the program.
There is no application for the Fortune program. Participants are nominated and selected annually by the staff at U.S. Embassies around the world.
