2:1 (Cross-Mentoring)
“Until now, manual matching was a very time-consuming and iterative process for us. With the tool-supported matching from menteez, we receive well-founded suggestions based on objective criteria in a matter of seconds. This saves time and gives us more security in the matching process.”
Karin Graf - Program Management mentoring fff
Starting position
For over 15 years, the mentoring program mentoring fff has been supporting qualified women on their path to leadership positions. As part of the program, mentees are paired with experienced leaders from various Zurich Universities of Applied Sciences. Careful matching is crucial for the success of each individual tandem.
Until now, this process was completely manual. Potential tandems were discussed, compared, and repeatedly adjusted over several days. At the same time, the question always remained as to whether individual assignments could be further optimized. In addition, decisions were partly based on subjective assessments and many years of experience.
Solution
With menteez, matching is now based on objective criteria. Within a few seconds, the platform creates sound proposals, which can then be reviewed by the program management and adapted individually if necessary.
Additional added value is already created during registration. Through the structured questionnaire, participants address their goals, expectations, and preferences at an early stage. This not only improves the data basis for matching, but at the same time also the preparation for the mentoring program.
During the launch, the platform was continuously adapted to the requirements of the program. Together with the ZHAW, menteez developed solutions for specific challenges and ensured that the tool integrates optimally into the existing process.
