This program is open to PMI Thai Chapter members only.
As a service to members, the PMI Thai Chapter can connect you with a mentor – someone who has achieved success in the world of project management and who wants to help you develop your own career.
Having a mentor is a proven way of accelerating your career. Many highly successful professionals owe some of their success to having access to a great mentor.
How it works
The PMI Thai Mentoring Program matches mentees with mentors, and provides ongoing support to the mentoring pairs.
Mentees submit an application outlining their career experience and areas they want to develop. Mentors also submit applications describing their areas of expertise. These applications are assessed by the PMI Mentoring team with the aim of finding the most suitable mentor for each mentee, and then introducing like mentors and mentees to each other to have a successful ‘pairing’.
A formal kick-off session is arranged for each intake of mentors and mentees.
