goEMAW Mentor Program

[steve dave]

I'm excited to announce a new program we will be rolling out at gE, a formal mentorship program designed to help our best posters improve their leadership skills and our newer posters learn how to improve themselves as a poster. In order to participate please respond in this thread why you would make a good mentor or what you would like to gain as a mentee and we'll match you up with someone.

ive been thinking about this- what if goEMAW had a "training board" for new posters?

we pin a couple threads about acronyms with some history about the board and maybe link a few of the classic threads for them to view. a couple of posters who really know the ropes can take time out of their busy BBSing days to help produce better posters. mocat, j-dub... guys like that.

only give new posters access to that thread for like 2 weeks while they learn the ways. thoughts?

I'd like to apply for a mentor. I feel I've lost whatever edge I may have once had.

Do mentors and mentees, like go to DQ and talk about life experiences and posting techniques, etc. over dip cones and PB parfaits?

This program will just add to the group think mentality this board already has.

I vote to disband this program immediately!
