XEnergy offers a mentoring programme for women who are at the beginning of their business careers in renewable energy, energy efficiency and sustainable development. Mentors are experienced business people, women and men, who spend a certain amount of time in the program guiding and advising less experienced colleagues.
The presentation of our mentoring program took place on 15 June 2023.
Each young woman who applies and wins the programme is matched with an appropriate mentor based on her career goals, interests and areas of expertise.
Mentors meet regularly with their mentees once a month to provide advice, support and share their experiences. These meetings provide an opportunity to ask questions, discuss challenges and receive concrete feedback.
XEnergy organises various workshops, panel discussions and events for mentors and mentees to attend for education, networking and exchange of ideas.
Through our mentoring programme, young women have the opportunity to connect with other programme participants and build valuable connections and support within the energy transition projects.
Our mentors are a dedicated team of event planners, travel enthusiasts and sustainability advocates, boasting over twenty years of collective expertise in orchestrating successful events.
