What’s inside this Mentoring Program Quarterly Check-In:

1 🎯 State the purpose of the meeting

The purpose of this meeting is to share feedback on how the mentorship program is working. Ask participants to start thinking about the following (or prepare these points before the meeting):

• What are some positive outcomes from the program?
• What would you change/improve?

2 📌 State the ground rules of the meeting

These ground rules should be determined as a group and outline how everyone agrees to behave. Examples of ground rules include:

• This is a confidential meeting so everything we share stays here.
• If I ask a question that you are not comfortable answering, just ask me to pass it to the next person.
• At the end of the quarterly meeting, we will provide a summary of comments from both groups but will not identify anyone.

3 👋 The meeting begins

• Who is your mentor/mentee?
• How often are you meeting and, on average, how long do you meet?
• What is the one objective you can share that you’re working on and how is that going?
• How is the relationship working for you at this time?
