HOLDETTE-ING IT ALL TOGETHER
TIPS ON MENTORSHIP FOR THE MENTEE
Entering into the professional world can feel…daunting. Whether you are young, re-entering the space, or making a career change, finding a mentor to help guide you through the professional space can make it all feel manageable.
Here are some tips on how to ask someone to be your mentor (just FYI, it won’t be like Haymitch and Katniss in the Hunger Games).
BOOK CLUB IN REVIEW: JUNE
After being quarantined in March, I hadn’t participated in a group facilitated discussion outside of my family dinners in months. Being a part of the intimate, and thought-provoking discussion we had in Back Pocket’s first book club this month- I remembered what I had been missing.
I felt so nervous about participating in an all online discussion. Would I get to share my thoughts? Would I get talked over? Would it be hard to hear from everyone?
#HOLDETTECLASSOF2020
At Holdette we wanted to honor some seniors who did not get to fasten their caps like crowns and put on the sleeves to their robes come May. pulled from our very own team, as well as our Back Pocket community we are celebrating our Holdette Class of 2020. Congratulations to our bright and shining seniors, we are so proud of you!
