The first icebreaker series event will focus on building mutually beneficial mentorship. Many young professionals want to learn from more experienced individuals to support their personal and professional growth. However, mentorships can be difficult to form, especially outside of one’s company in Japan.

Mentor/mentee pairs from USJC and TOMODACHI will share their experiences and perspectives on how to build a mentorship. By the end of the event, participants will have a better idea of how to start and maintain a relationship as well as how it transforms the lives of both young and experienced professionals.
