The program itself consists of the following components:

  • A tailored mentoring program is agreed with mentor (maximum duration: 12 months)
  • Standard Components & Reading List:
    • Read: The Doctrine of Universal Truths by Kazeem Olalekan (available free of charge as part of the program).
    • Discussion: Meet to discuss issues arising from reading the above book and relate it to mentee's own reality (maximum 2 x 1.5 hours)
    • Read: Further resources which apply the principles of the doctrine (materials will be provided - ebook & presentations).
    • Discussion: Meet to discuss issues arising from reading the provided text. Apply principle to current news items plus mentee's own reality (maximum 4 x 1.5 hours).
  • A walk with the mentor: This is an optional observational component to the program whereby the mentor observes the mentee in their  'normal' environment. The mentee agree with mentor which 'normal' environment observation is required (maximum of 3 x 1 hour sessions)
  •  End of program discussion to establish next steps plus a feedback session (Include the option to check progress 2 months after end of program - maximum 1.5 hours).

The program is evaluated on an on-going basis and the mentee can withdraw at any stage. Depending on the specific need of the mentee, the program may focus on a one specific issue or on a broad range of issues. This will be agreed between mentor and mentee.
