About the Program
Global Gaming Women's Mentorship Program is a unique experience designed to build a sense of community and global connection, increase awareness for women in gaming, and facilitate personal and professional growth. Less experienced individuals – mentees – will be paired with more experienced peers – mentors – connecting individuals and enhancing confidence through these relationships.
Through near-peer mentorship, we match mentees with mentors who are a few steps ahead in their career journeys—ensuring relevant advice, relatable experiences, and meaningful connections.
How the Mentoring Program Works:
1. Create a Profile
Sign up as a mentor, mentee, or both. Complete your profile to help us understand your needs and experiences.
2. Get Matched
We'll find the most suitable mentor or mentee for you, based on your personal and professional goals. You'll receive a match proposal, and once both parties agree, your mentorship begins.
3. Engage & Grow
Over three months, you'll have at least four scheduled meetings—two in the first month and one per month afterwards. This structured approach ensures meaningful progress and strong relationships.
The Benefits of Being a Mentor & Mentee
Expand your impact through mentorship. Support others and in doing so develop yourself to new levels.
Give and Receive
Experience the satisfaction of giving back while gaining fresh perspectives from those you mentor or learn from.
New Perspective
It's an opportunity to learn about yourself and areas you may still need to develop.
Appreciate Your Value
Deeper appreciation for the value you have to offer.
Improved Communication
Mentoring gives you the opportunity to practice taking your internal knowledge and verbally communicating it.
Developed Leadership Skills
Supporting others to make effective decisions and take action are important principles in leadership.
Authentic Relationships
The longer-term result of a great short term mentor-mentee match is often a lasting friendship.
Success Stories from Our Community
"Being both a mentor and mentee in the GGW program has been incredibly rewarding. I've not only helped others grow but also learned so much from my own mentor. The structured 3-month cycles and rematching opportunities have kept the experience fresh and valuable."Sophie Bennett
