The HSP Mentoring Program is launched, and yes, it is totally FREE
At HSP we are truly delighted to launch the HSP Mentoring Program.
It is hard to find in one place, as much passion and expertise for the Hospitality industry as here at HSP. This is why we gathered all that care and experience and packaged it into a new exciting initiative benefiting aspiring young leaders in the sector.
As a leading global network of expert hospitality consultants, we are fortunate to have both breadth and depth of experience in all realms of the hospitality business. Speaking with clients, we recognize that there is a great need for guiding and nurturing young aspiring talent in the sector.
In alignment with ESG Policy Statement and our commitment to fostering positive impact for clients, colleagues, and communities, HSP decided to take this great opportunity to share our experience to better our industry.
The HSP Mentoring Program is designed to provide young leaders with invaluable guidance and insights from seasoned professionals within HSP’s extensive global network of hospitality consultants, advocating for responsible business practices in the sector.
How does the HSP Mentoring Program work?
We like to keep things simple, so here’s how it goes:
- Young aspiring talent would fill in an online application form to be considered for the HSP Mentoring Program by 30th of June 2024.
- The applications will be screened by Donald Bowman, the Program Director, and a set of selected mentees will be chosen based on their needs and fit.
- Selected mentees will then be paired with volunteer mentors carefully chosen from HSP’s global network of seasoned consultants. The pairing will prioritize regional proximity and career specialties to help maximize the benefits and relevance.
- Mentees will be advised that they have been selected by 12th July and asked, prior to the mentoring program starting, to share with their assigned mentors, background information, objectives and career aspirations. This step would ensure the mentors are able to tailor the program to the mentee’s individual needs and situation.
- Over the course of two months, mentors and mentees will engage in up to five one-hour calls or in-person meetings, facilitating in-depth discussions on career progression, personal development and growth strategies.
