Mentors
women++ wants to ensure that deploy(impact)'s participants have enough resources/ support that allows them to learn and develop their skills in tech further. Mentors include volunteers coming from the different sponsoring companies as well as the women++ community.
Mentors help participants with their projects on a weekly basis, bringing expertise particularly relevant to the process of an agile tech development program within their own areas of expertise. These competencies include the following roles assigned to participants, but needn't be limited to:
Software development: front-end dev (main focus for the projects, mobile dev, back-end dev (when required), ML (depending on the solution’s functionalities).
Tech project management: agile methodology, project lead/ tech projects experience, business, sales.
UI/UX design
Minimum of 1hr/week for 6 weeks from October 8 (Opening ceremony) till November 19 (Project presentations & Award ceremony)
The mentoring can take place in the following forms:
-
Throughout the 6-week sprints, there will be a biweekly Product Owner Feedback Session with each individual team and their product owner (InZone or Kona Connect). Participants’ questions from each of these sessions will be documented and made available for mentors to review in their own dedicated weekly time slots.
-
Taking part in Product Owner Feedback Sessions, giving direct feedback during or solving questions resulting from this session: October 15, Time TBC | October 29, Time TBC | November 12, Time TBC
-
Ad hoc follow-ups with a specific project team, through the centralized communication platform (Agorize’s chat) during your dedicated time slots.
-
A participant might need mentoring which matches the skills of a mentor, it could be interesting to pair them for as long as required (including the full duration of the program), to see their development. Support would be given during your mentor’s dedicated time slots, on a weekly basis.
