Although the development of mentees remains at the heart of the mentoring tandem, participating in the mentoring programme also offers a number of benefits to mentors, resulting in a win-win situation for both mentors and mentees.

Ideas for a process of self-reflection on one's own professional development and life path
Contact with the university and potential early career candidates for the mentor’s own business
You will become visible as a promoter of young talent and a competent leader
A process of exchange with the mentee and insight into the background of experience held by a younger generation
Development of your own consulting and leadership skills
Facilitating the transfer of knowledge and experience
Participation in cutting-edge areas of science
A process of exchange between theory and practice, or discussions relating to the topics pursued by the scientific faculty
And last but not least: the joy of passing on knowledge

The programme duration is approximately 12 months (April to April). It is recommended that the mentoring tandem meet in intervals of 6–8 weeks. At least four of these meeting should be conducted in person. Experience has shown that meetings can last between two and three hours. The timing and content can be freely coordinated by the mentoring tandem. Organising the meetings is the responsibility of the mentee.
