Mentee Application

A Mentorship Program for the Nordic Business Council members


Through the Mentorship Program, SBC links ambitious young professionals with knowledgeable executives and entrepreneurs. Our mission is to promote a mutual exchange of ideas and experiences between mentors and mentees to further develop their career during a set timeframe. The program provides the mentor and the mentee with personal career guidance, ideas, business training and networking opportunities where both can benefit from each other’s experiences.

Benefits for mentees

  • Feedback on how to progress professionally

  • Greater insights into career opportunities

  • Guidance on short and long-term career goals

  • Grow relevant networks

  • Feedback on resume & personal pitch

  • Understanding business ideas and goals

  • Learn from challenges in the workplace

During the 6 month program SBC will organise:

  • A Launch event, where all participants will receive a framework as a guideline

  • A Mid program review event, to check how the progress is developing

  • A Closing grand dinner event, sharing stories and insights from each couple

To participate as a Mentee this year, a total cost of AED 250 will be charged

The participants may choose to arrange other meetups during the course of the program.

SBC would like to point out that it is the mentor and the mentee who decide how the mentorship program and their relationship develops. When and where they will meet, how the plan will be shaped, the communication executed, and issues tackled. It is important to know and acknowledge before applying, that is recommended that the mentee is responsible to drive the program and it is HIS/HER responsibility to learn and develop.

SBC will provide the framework but does not have the possibility to follow up individually with each couple during the program. It is therefore assumed that everything is running smoothly unless SBC is contacted.  

We look forward to receiving your application before the 20th September 2024.

Best regards
