Yesim Nazlar:@Satish: now corrected :)
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):Thoise less experienced in Mentoring (or Coaching as the basics will be can get helo from us who have more oractice/experience...
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):It can be a mix of general basics (some will have that already) ands yes all need to be taylored to fit
Siranush Vardanyan:I agree that all RALO leaders should be mentors, and the joint mentor-mentee sessions can be organized at the beginning, which will help us to identify more about mentees, and those joint sessions can be lead by our super mentor;)
Satish Babu:Thanks @Yesim
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):Yes Sira some group, sime small group. and a good lot of one on one ;-)
Siranush Vardanyan:yes, Cheryl, then joint sessions will be followed up by one to one meetings already
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):The intake or basics goup can be coached / supervised by those of you feeling less secure in Mentoring per se, this is really more of a coaching and support role, but sifts out tlent and commitment fairly fast
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):You should also consider rotstng some of the coaching roles between you for some people as well
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):Yes Holly rotation will help especially for those less clearly directed
Siranush Vardanyan:+1
Satish Babu:I agree.
Maureen Hilyard:Could we have a mentor-mentee group meeting in Hyderabad where we do what Holly is mentioning.. agenda setting, etc
Maureen Hilyard:Although we would have been through much of the introductory session with our mentees before then..
Satish Babu:Not sure if mentees are all participating in Hyderabad...otherwise a call should be fine...
Holly Raiche:2
Siranush Vardanyan:I am not sure if all mentees will be in Hyderabad in person
Holly Raiche:satish - those who aren't there can join by adobe
Siranush Vardanyan:yes, can be a meeting supported by Adobe for others to join
Holly Raiche:We also have the apralo webinars that we can use
Silvia Vivanco:@ Ali, what would be the lenght of the mentorship program?
Holly Raiche:2
Ali AlMeshal:@ Slivia , until march 17
Holly Raiche:silvia and all - I would think at least 6 months - to include at least one if not two ICANN meetings
Silvia Vivanco:Thanks Ali and Holly
Holly Raiche:@ Ali - good - thank includes the first 2017 meetng as well
Siranush Vardanyan:Silvia, it is 9 months program with actual prep work already started now, then actual work with mentees staring in Hyderabad and the with evaluation part after kopenhagen meeting to be finalized by Johannesburg meeting ac
Holly Raiche:I thinkhaving a couple of group meetings we can see you works with whom
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):Yup
Silvia Vivanco:Thanks for that information Siranush
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):We also need to establishe what they have done, E.G. we can get a good idea from fellowship exerience, but others may have also done some of the online learning ICANN offers
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):OR have outside of ICANN exoereices and skill sets
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO): We can ask a few more probing questions to tease thiese things out Satish any one I have menotred jnows that is my prefered way of establishing expectations and prediuction of desired outcomes
Holly Raiche:We need to set aside time in Hyderabod for us to follow up what we decide on his and later calls
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):Sorry about my typos
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):Yes Holly even if it means some remote participation
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):There is sime himework we can set the mentees to helo with that Maureen
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):That facilitation of smoothing issues rile is one I am haooy to assist with
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):Argh Typing !
Maureen Hilyard:Tahnk you Cheryl.. we really need your assistance with that setting up stage
Silvia Vivanco:@ Ali, and what happens after the mentorship program ends? How do you ensure that mentees actually remain engaged and most importantly take up some leadership /proactive role?
Holly Raiche:@ Silvia - I think our immediate role is to retain - it is to educate,to involve. In the end, though, it isup to the mentees what they do. At this stage, however, without support, it is far more likely we will lose them
Silvia Vivanco:@ Hollly, right that is my concern, that the mentorship program is supposed to achieve the goal to bring active people to APRALO, and hopefully they will take up some proactive /leadership role
Silvia Vivanco:thanks for your feedback Holly and Cheryl
Maureen Hilyard:And also some more listing of skills, interest areas... as Cheryl is stating...
Maureen Hilyard:about the mentors
Holly Raiche:Agree with Cheryl
Satish Babu:+1 Cheryl on the minimum information requirements...
Holly Raiche:I think we have already started the program - doing the ground work, getting names, etc.
Maureen Hilyard:I agree Cheryl about matching just yet.. get more info on mentees and mentors first
Holly Raiche:Agree - I think there may be two general groups - those who really know ICANN, and those who need the ICANN 101 course
Satish Babu:There are some 101 courses at ICANN Learrn, as well as ISOC's online course...
Holly Raiche:@ Satish - thanks - all ofthat wil be really helpful
Silvia Vivanco:@ Satish correct, those 101 courses are a great resource
Maureen Hilyard:Yes Cheryl.. I was going to ask about that too.. soemthing that we can use as an ideas board for us only to get us going
