GEDA Mentor Program
The GEDA Development Authority Executives Committee has taken on the task of creating a Mentor program for GEDA! This is something that has been discussed for a very long time by GEDA leadership. You, the members, have been asking for a way to tap into the decades of knowledge possessed by GEDA members.
That hope and request is no longer a hope or request – it is a reality!
Here are some examples of the topics that this esteemed group of economic development professionals are prepared to discuss with you: • Advice on setting professional priorities
• An understanding of how to build a circle of friends and contacts both within and outside of GEDA
• Introduce the person to top authorities in the field
• Act as a sounding board for ideas and concerns of the economic development professional
• Provide vision and insight, advice and counsel
• Provide support and encouragement
• Give encouragement for building self-confidence and stronger self-esteem
• Constructive feedback and critical analysis
The list of the ten members of the Mentor Group are listed in a file in our Document Center, in the Development Authority Executives Committee. Please do not hesitate to contact any of these ten professionals with questions/requests for advice or feedback/support/advice, etc.
HUGE THANK YOU to Bob Simmons and the rest of the Mentors for agreeing to take on this task and presenting this wonderful opportunity to the GEDA Membership.
