Each session comprised time for the mentor and mentee to spend together working on the mentee’s goals, a group task led by a creative professional — e.g. creative problem solving, pitching & presenting techniques, digital skills training that all take part in. The sessions end on a short ted-type talk from an inspirational speaker who has a tale to tell about their job and their journey to get there.
