What is mentoring?

Mentoring is an instrument for systematic personal and personality development. It is a kind of sponsorship between an experienced female mentor and their learning mentee. The experienced female mentor supports her protégé with insider knowledge, shares her experience and helps with valuable contacts.

For this mentoring relationship to work, there must be complete trust between both parties. The discussions must be confidential!

Helene Wastl Club

Since 2006, the Helene Wastl Club has specifically promoted the networking of committed female doctors and scientists and now consists of almost 280 highly competent members.

In addition to comprehensive training and (specialist) expertise, personal contacts, proactive networking as well as positive role models are crucial for a successful scientific career in medicine. The Helene Wastl Club therefore focuses on the exchange of experiences and mutual support in peer mentoring, which builds relationships and facilitates access to career-promoting networks. The intensive examination of one's own role in the medical-scientific environment strengthens (self-)empowerment.

 

We are a member of Forum Mentoring e.V. and the ‘International Conference Mentoring in Medicine’, a specialist competence network of mentoring female coordinators in university medicine, which networks medical mentoring programmes in German-speaking countries and is based on the quality standards of this professional association for good mentoring practice at universities.
