VBKI-MENTORING

60 Mentors and mentees engage in an exchange

After this year's VBKI mentoring program was launched at the end of January with an opening eventwhere mentors and mentees got to know each other, the mentoring discussions are now in full swing.

With around 60 mentors from the VBKI and mentees from the Berlin and Brandenburg metropolitan region, we were able to achieve a new record number of participants. The numbers show us how great the need for exchange between the different generations is and we are extremely grateful to everyone involved for their great commitment.

Mentoring is not a one-way street, but an exchange of experience and knowledge at eye level. It not only requires a lot of time, but also trust and openness - on both sides. The wonderful feedback we have received so far shows us that everyone involved generously shares this with each other.

Anyone interested in participating in the VBKI Mentoring Round 2025, either as a mentor or mentee, is invited to attend the closing event of this year's program in mid-September. We will announce the exact date here shortly.
Because for us, too: "After the mentoring round is before the mentoring round." That is why we are already adding interested mentors and mentees to our registration list for 2025. Please contact us at mentorenprogramm@vbki.de.

When I was nominated to the VBKI a few years ago, I also took the opportunity to take part in the VBKI mentoring program. The famous "thinking outside the box", sparring on topics relating to leadership, professional development and a very personal exchange - these are just some of the aspects that moved me together with my mentor at the time, Daniela Teichert. To this day, I am very grateful to her for her impulses and the very valuable exchange at an earlier stage of my career. Taking part is worthwhile - for both sides!

I can only encourage you to get involved with this program. I have had very good experiences as a mentor because this program is not a one-way street. Both sides, mentee and mentor, gain valuable, practical insights for everyday life, but also impulses for further development programs in companies. Dominique Eichner and I still enjoy meeting up, by the way.
