Giant Step is a digital agency building websites, mobile apps, custom software and marketing campaigns (http://giantstep.ca).
MentorEase is a software-as-a-service (SAAS) platform built by Giant Step.
MentorEase is an affordable Mentoring Software solution that helps manage mentoring programs. It help Mentoring Program Managers by:
1. Automating the mentor-mentee matching process
2. Providing a structured process for the mentoring activities ( >> this is what we want to work with you on << )
3. Management tools and reports
We work with mentoring programs at various industry sectors:
* Higher Education - https://www.mentorease.com/higher-education
* Industry Associations - https://www.mentorease.com/industry-associations
* Corporate HR, Training & Education Initiatives - https://www.mentorease.com/corporate-hr-education-training
* Sales Mentoring - https://www.mentorease.com/sales-mentoring
* Startup Accelerators - https://www.mentorease.com/startup-accelerators
* Healthcare Peer Mentoring - https://www.mentorease.com/health-peer-support-mentoring
The goal of this project is to help define the best structured process for getting both mentor and mentee value from their mentoring program experience. We will answer questions like:
* How do we help participants quickly identify their own (+ their mentor's) personality type? Then provide related info
* What type of ice-breaker activities should we include in the system?
* What types of reminders are needed? What's essential or too much?
* Should we have a checklist and what should it include?
* What are the stages of mentoring? (related questions for mentors and mentees)
> We would like students to prepare a survey for mentoring program managers and we will contact them for responses.
The final deliverable would be a clear process for mentors and mentees to go through. It can be a set of steps with questions, self-assessments, ice-breakers, recommended activities, checklists and more. Students will study the research materials available online regarding various mentoring program structures to define the ultimate process.
Mentoring programs bring 2 strangers together and the questions is: How do we provide a mentoring structure that will ensure these strangers will help each other as much as possible and be very happy with the program?
