Our Community

Our mentors are some of the most experienced senior level executives in Australia from the private, public and social sectors.

Our purpose-driven mentees are empowered by their communities and dedicated to their cause. They are the leaders of charities, not-for-profits and social impact organisations.

When our community comes together, they create a powerful combination of knowledge, passion, support and drive.
