12:30 PM - 1:30 PM
Bridging Differences for Better Mentoring with Lisa Fain
Lisa Fain, CEO, and founder of the Center for Mentoring Excellence will guide mentors and mentees to bridge gaps between and among cultures - a growing issue in today's diverse workplace
Lisa Fain, CEO, and founder of the Center for Mentoring Excellence will guide mentors and mentees to bridge gaps between and among cultures - a growing issue in today's diverse workplace. Mentors and mentees may come from very different backgrounds and have a limited understanding of each other's cultures and outlooks. But mentoring remains the most powerful tool for creating meaningful relationships, furthering professional development, and increasing engagement and retention. Younger workers and emerging leaders, in particular, are demanding it.
President Jimmy called the meeting to order at 12:30 p.m., in-person at the Westin and on Zoom. Song leader Raymond Tymas-Jones accompanied by Ryan Bunbury led Rotarians in a St. Patrick’s Day favorite, When Irish Eyes are Smiling; and followed by Bill Center with the day’s inspiration focused on the plight of Ukrainian refugees caught up since 2/24 in Putin’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine. In context with the recent ‘cold open’ where two cast members introduced the Ukrainian Chorus who then performed their anthem followed by the familiar intro, ‘live from New York’ it was Saturday Night’. Ukraine has a deep, rich tradition of choral music. “On this occasion, the performance brought me to tears,” Bill said. “It's even more moving once you know the words of the prayer – so wise – selfless – and humble”.

Together you will explore important regional issues and how they are interconnected, develop and practice strategies and tools to become more effective civic leaders, and expand your personal and professional networks.
