Closing the Mentorship Gap

Mentorship unleashes social capital and opportunity, paving the way to lifelong career success for students and alumni. The advantages of mentoring are compelling, but quality mentoring is not within everyone's reach. This is the mentoring gap. Given the many reasons for the gap (difficulty organizing cross functionally, small staff and budgets, etc. ), a new model is needed to help more students and alumni close the gap. Universities will need to leverage technology, put students and alumni at the center, personalize offerings, and simplify/consolidate resources to achieve this goal.
