Session: The Mentoring Effect: Building adaptive leaders in a changing world
Technology changes fast but people evolve slower. Adaptive leadership is the bridge between the two. In this session, we’ll explore how mentoring can become one of the most powerful, human tools for navigating constant transformation. Mentoring isn’t just about sharing experience: it’s about expanding perspectives, building courage, and creating leaders who can thrive in uncertainty. Drawing from real stories in tech consulting and cross-cultural teams, I’ll share how both mentors and mentees can unlock adaptability through curiosity, feedback, and empathy. Together, we’ll reframe mentoring as a mutual growth journey that fuels innovation and resilience, qualities every organization needs in times of change.Key Takeaways
- Mentoring is a catalyst for adaptability and courage
- Shared learning drives innovation and inclusion
- Building leadership capacity through empathy and reflection
