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.
