MENTORING COMMITTEE
Embedded Files
The LBNL Mentorship Working Group is a cross-divisional and cross-functional group of passionate advocates for mentorship. In October 2021, the IDEA Senior Leadership Council (SLC) agreed to support a Lab-wide mentoring initiative that could fill employee needs beyond what existing divisional mentoring programs provide. As a result of the SLC’s feedback, the Mentoring Committee has spent the past year developing this effort, named MENTORING@LBNL, to pilot impactful Lab-wide mentoring events and resources.
There are two workstreams that our LBNL Mentorship Working Group manages simultaneously under the Mentoring@LBNL umbrella: one is dedicated to piloting the Just-in-Time (JIT) Mentoring program, which launched in November 2022 and the other is adapting a DOE-developed program called Entering Mentoring to upskill aspiring mentors on best-practices which began in early 2023. There is a subcommittee dedicated to each workstream.
