Tempe Chamber Women in Business Announces the 2018-2019 Mentoring Program 

by Kristian Johnson

The Tempe Chamber of Commerce’s Women in Business Council launched its annual mentoring program with 11 pairs of mentors and protégés. The selected participants began the six-month program on December 13th.

The program focuses on self-discovery, professional development, making connections, sharing experiences and much more. Each participant was asked to complete a TTI/DISC online assessment that provides customized insight into each participant — including communication style, driving forces and values — and is used in sessions. 

Gold sponsor for this year’s program is Sender Associates, and program partners include MAC6, Southwest College for Naturopathic Medicine and Yoga for Today. 

The 2018-2019 Mentoring Program culminates with a graduation ceremony at the 2019 Leadership Conference & Expo presented by the Women in Business Council. The conference is set for May 17, 2019, at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Phoenix Tempe.
