WINGS endeavors to bring caring women with business, life and mentoring
skills together with those reaching out to develop their WINGS in these
talents. The WINGS motto is to.... "MENTOR with the MIND and LEAD
with the HEART" We provide small luncheon meetings where no more
than 20 can attend. Keeping the group small allows for the synergy to happen
when you get women sharing who they are, what they do, what they need,
their victories, goals, and strategies to achieve these goals. There
is no fees, restrictions, boards to sit on, and no clickness. Women love
WINGS!
Carol Muller peered into the future when she
founded MentorNet. In 1998, she
paired industry professionals with 200 women studying science or engineering
at under grad or graduate levels. Next year, Muller anticipates 3,500
participants.
"There is a high rate of satisfaction with
MentorNet. Students report that self-confidence increased," she said. Women
make up half of the work force but only 9 percent of the engineers and
6 percent of all aerospace engineers. Muller said that the women
who drop out of engineering programs do so with better grades than the
men who stay. Confidence can make a difference, she said. "Some
women love being pioneers. Others look around and wonder, 'What's wrong
with me?'" Visit MentorNet

A mentor program provides an organized way of providing assistance
to individuals who would otherwise be limited in their capabilities and
understanding of basic business practices and environment in general. It
also provides a way for individuals in business to gain greater competence
and proficiency in understanding the private and commercial business and
professional environment. JOIN OUR BUSINESS MAIL LIST TODAY!
Women In Business Cyberspace Field of Dreams has started the E-Mail
Discussion Mail List in order to provide a way for ongoing mentoring
(java
chat) sessions. We wish to support activities designed to (1) participate
in the growth and understanding of the professional environment, (2) improve
the business common sense of individuals, and (3) assist in alleviating
social problems as they affect the professional achievement of Women In
Business.
The government office SCORE is a group of volunteer retired executives
who have volunteered to mentor via email. I will caution you that these retired volunteers may not have
experience in online business but can assist you in general business issues
pertaining to building specific business skills.
We hope to provide on-line instruction for new owners and (1) share
resources with experienced women in business, (2) encourage women in business
to identify and set realistic and achievable goals, (3) support each other's
desire to stay or enter into business as a way to achieve their goals and
improve self-esteem and (4) to create a successful atmosphere to attain
growth in business and personal relationships. If you are interested in
a specific topic, please let Deb Nyberg
know so FoD can arrange a session for you.
