Mentor Community

Mentor Community

Course alumni interested in becoming a mentor may apply to the program after they have received the Certificate of Completion and have reviewed, understand and accept the CCO Mentoring Agreement.

CCO Mentors are supported throughout the year with monthly mentor community conferences that include skill building, Q&A, troubleshooting, as well as situational support and scenarios, role-plays, and more.

Mentors have access to the Global Compassion Network Mentors Forum, and a listing in the Mentor Directory (made available to CCO participants).

Click Here to sign up for the Q&A on April 30.

FAQ

Q: How do I find people to mentor?

A: There will be a community forum of available course mentors for CCO participants. As well, you can invite friends, family and colleagues into the course so that you can offer them mentoring.

Q: How often to I meet with my mentees?

A: The intention of the mentoring program is that you agree with your mentee as to how often and for how long to meet.

Q: What do I do in these mentoring sessions?

A: Here is the “big picture” of mentoring

Guiding people through the integration process

  • To understand that needs and feelings exist and what they are

  • To be able to recognize and articulate feelings and needs in yourself and in others

  • To develop and deepen your relationship with those energies in you and in others

  • To be able to see yourself and others empathically and create needs-based dialogues

  • When your life is guided by the wisdom of life-energy (feelings and needs) and it informs how you relate to yourself, others and the universe

Q: Does the course offer support to mentors?

A: Yes, participants will receive email reminders for the monthly Mentoring Program conference. As well, there will be a 24/7 connection to the CCO mentoring community via our private and secure forum. Based on our experience with the Organizer/Facilitators, we understand the importance of this group as a source of wisdom and support.

Q: Can I charge people for mentoring?

A: We are supporters of energy exchange, although we do not set fees. That is an agreement made between the mentor and the mentee. What people agree to pay varies widely from pro-bono (free) to over $200 per session depending upon location, skill, finances, situations, and other pertinent information.
