Mentor Circles™

Mentor Circles are one of the most powerful individual and organizational learning tools available. They are the secret to sharing practical wisdom, ensuring continuous development and building social networks.

Made up of about 6-8 individuals, these groups are designed to help each member achieve their goals, work through difficulties and and obtain advice and support. Each Circle meets once a month for a few hours under the guidance of a Circle facilitator to share experiences, exchange ideas and provide feedback. As a result, each person learns new skills, continously learns and solves day-to-day problems - in just an hour or so.

Mentor Circles are for those individuals who wish to learn and grow in a relazed and supportive environment and for organizations who wish to create communities of practice and social learning networks.

How Mentor Circles work
Mentor Circles consist of facilitator-lead discussions with clear gound rules. At every meeting each member has the opportunity to present a challenge and ask for specific feedback. These challenges are discussed and each conversation concludes with action steps to take before the next meeting. Circle members are matched on the basis of similar experiences and interests.

This unique process is based on two books: One Circle-Tapping the Power of Those Who Know you Best and Mission Possible-Creating a Mission for Work and Life, both by Maureen Fitzgerald, PhD, a non-practicing lawyer and Circle expert.
