🪢 What it is
- A 6-month pairing with a people manager not on your team - an informal way to build connection, share knowledge, and support each other
❤️ Why it exists
- To create a community of managers and help managers enhance their skills to manage, lead, and grow their teams
👩👩👦👦 Who is involved
- Any individual (L3-L6) with 1+ direct reports
- P&C will create pairings, make the initial connection between mates, provide reminders, and gather feedback about the program
⚙️ How it works
- Managers are paired with a mate for 6 months (Jun - Dec 2022)
- It is up to the mates to determine how often and in what form to meet, but we recommend monthly
🧑🏽🤝🧑🏾 Who’s my mate?!
First cycle from June - December 2022
💬 What should we talk about?
- Set up a recurring (monthly) meeting with your mate — If you are in the same office, try to get out of the office and grab a coffee each month. If you are in different offices, in addition to your virtual meetups, consider creating space to get together in person next time you travel to your mate’s office
