<strong>Subject:</strong><br />SigEp - the Brother Mentor Challenge Coordinator<br /><br /> Poster Message:
The Brother Mentor challenge coordinator does not need to be in the Brother Mentor challenge. When this challenge is run right, the Brother Mentor Challenge Coordinator is the most popular position in the chapter because he gets to work with successful alumni on a regular basis. Beyond planning and executing monthly Brother Mentor challenge meetings, successful coordinators will: • Schedule and hold the Brother Mentor Rite of Passage at least three times a year • Ensure each member in the challenge has a professional mentor • Develop relationships with external facilitators to ensure that all content is delivered by an expert • Maintain a list with up-to-date contact information of professionals who are willing to serve as mentors • Hold a reception or event to honor all professional mentors The professional mentor is an alumnus, volunteer, or community member selected before a brother enters the Brother Mentor Challenge. This mentor helps foster the personal and professional growth of their mentee to prepare for life after college. These mentors have an opportunity to set up their mentees to be successful in the next phase of their lives. Professional mentors should meet these minimum standards: • Graduated for three years and at least 25 years old • Commit to giving the necessary time to spend with their mentee one-on-one • Have experience in a career field that interests the mentee PROGRAMMING: Additional Brother Mentor challenge resources can be found here.
