For mentees and mentors
Mentoring networking event
We are celebrating five years of mentoring at Leipzig University - and cordially invite you to a special networking event in the Paulinum - Aula and University Church of St Pauli. You can look forward to an inspiring evening that offers the opportunity to exchange ideas with other participants from past mentoring programmes, gain new impulses and revive old contacts.
- The event is aimed at participants in the mentoring programme.
What you can expect
- Panel discussion on the topic of leadership
The topic of leadership concerns us all, even if we don't wear pinstripe suits, drive company cars or sit in a boardroom. Because leadership means taking responsibility for projects, ideas and people - and that's something we all do every day. Leadership means repeatedly taking steps into the unknown and therefore requires courage. However, courageous decisions can only be made by those who are vulnerable, says the well-known US social researcher Brené Brown. Do leadership and vulnerability go together? We talk to our panellists about leadership, courage and vulnerability:- Prof Dr Eva Inés Obergfell, Rector of Leipzig University
- Dr Katrin Leonhardt, Chairwoman of the Board of the Sächsische Aufbaubank (SAB) and alumna of Leipzig University
- Mentors and mentees of our programme
- Discussion rounds
Discussions with exciting questions and new perspectives await you at our themed tables. - Time for networking
You can socialise with other mentees and mentors in a relaxed atmosphere, accompanied by snacks and drinks.
Let's celebrate together what mentoring does - in the heart of our university. We look forward to seeing you again!
