About NAIOP Washington State's Mentor Program
The NAIOP mentorship program m atches up young professionals and students with seasoned industry veterans for informal, monthly meetings to share ideas, discuss professional develop ment and talk real estate in a casual atmosphere.
One ongoing mentor says:
The advantage of this program for a r eal estate professional such as me is that I get to interact and network wi th a broader range of individuals from the real estate and development comm unity. I see mentoring as a means of recruiting talent to our industry and fostering an exchange of perspectives from the next generation of industry professionals.
The time co mmitment is just an hour per month, and the benefits for both mentors and m entees can be quite substantial. Monthly meetings run January through June, beginning with a kick-off event January 30 and moving on to one-on-one mee tings.
NAIOPWA's mentorship program is an opportunity to build lasting connections in which Developing Leaders may learn professi onal skills such as executive presence, leadership, management and networki ng. The mentorship program is not intended as an opportunity to further sales goals or to seek future prospects during one-and-one mentorin g interactions.
