Forestry Australia is calling for 2025 mentoring applications
Friday 6 Dec 2024
A mentoring relationship is a powerful development experience
that can deliver personal and professional benefits for both mentors and
mentees.
Forestry Australia’s mentoring program runs for 9 months and is
designed to establish connections within the forestry sector by pairing
experienced forestry professionals with those who are seeking
professional development, opportunities for knowledge sharing and career
growth. The program has been developed around a framework and tool kit
of resources which will support participants to ensure effective and
sustainable knowledge transfer, skill acquisition and maintaining
momentum for all participants.
Forest Australia are seeking people who are:
- Passionate about forest science, forestry, and forest
management
- Thinking about the future of your forestry career and career
planning
- Looking to improve your time management skills
- Interested in developing goals and strategies with an experienced
professional who has been where you are now
- Want to improve your networking skills and expand your professional
connections
- A forester or forestry leader looking to share your knowledge,
invest in the future of the sector and help others by becoming a
mentor
Some of the Key Themes explored each month
are:
- Establishing Goals
- Time Management for Life
- Building Networks and Professional Connections
- Values and Ethics in Business
- and much more…
Mentors and Mentees are encouraged to invest one hour a
month at minimum to meet. It is also recommended that
mentees additionally dedicate
approximately 8 hours per month to
prepare for each meeting – including goal setting, pre-reading,
planning & pursuing development opportunities, and reflection
activities.
