Developing Leaders Mentorship Program

Inspired by the Developing Leaders Award category at our LightBox PRISM conference, this initiative was originally conceived in 2018 and launched in 2019 as an opportunity to provide education and mentor/mentee connections to spread the insights of business leaders, and provide newer professionals with the tools and resources they need to meet their professional development goals. This mentoring program is open to any commercial real estate risk management professionals at financial institutions or environmental consulting firms having less than 10 years of work experience.

To generate a commitment to the environmental profession as a career path by connecting driven professionals early in their environmental career with experienced industry leaders to assist in development through sage career advice and skill building. The Developing Leaders Mentorship Program will work to attract talent to the environmental risk management field and increase retention by providing Mentees with the network, framework, and support to succeed – enhancing their career development.

Our purpose as leaders in the industry is to encourage knowledge transfer and success by personally and professionally developing the future leaders of our industry. This mentoring initiative is an opportunity to provide education through forming Mentor/Mentee relationships to share the insights of business and technical leaders, and provide tips, guidance, and resources needed to meet professional and personal development goals.
