Elevate Mentoring

On Monday we hosted our virtual kick-off for Elevate 2025 and the energy in the virtual room was palpable! This year is our biggest by far with a 35% increase from 2024 and an incredible 110% growth since 2023! The momentum behind Elevate Mentoring continues to build year after year, connecting more passionate professionals than we ever thought possible. Seeing so many cameras on, so many smiles, and feeling the collective excitement for the journey ahead, we can't help but feel this, our 10th birthday year, is going to be our best ever! ---------------------- ??

Today and every day, we celebrate the women shaping the events industry through their vision and leadership. We have been fortunate to welcome nine such women onto our podcast: Nina Ferguson, CEO of INCA Productions; Charlotte Saynor, Head of Global Events and Experiences at Google DeepMind; Ally Owen, Founder of Brixton Finishing School; Nic Neal, People and Culture Strategy Consultant; Jen Bonassera, Senior Events Director at Condé Nast; Shanice Mears FRSA, Co-founder and Head of Talent at The Elephant Room ; Rosie Holden, Agency Management Consultant and Advisory Board Member at Sport Local Action; Charlotte Mair, Founder and Managing Director at The Fitting Room; and Sarah-Jane Benham Benham, CEO of Kru Live. How fortunate we are at Elevate to be part of a community where learning from inspirational women like this is possible. This International Women's Day, we extend our deepest gratitude to ALL the female mentors and leaders in our industry who are pushing boundaries, breaking barriers, and lifting others as they climb. #ElevateMentoring #InternationalWomensDay #WomenInEvents

There’s a difference between where you think your potential ends and where it actually does. Sometimes all it takes is someone saying "you've got this" to help you see what's really possible. A little encouragement can be the catalyst for massive change. As a mentor, you're helping someone see their full potential when they might not see it themselves.

Being a mentor might feel daunting. Asking for mentorship might feel vulnerable. That's exactly why you should do it. You have two options - do it or do it scared. Because on the other side of that application is a chance to either share your journey or begin a new chapter of your own. We have extended the deadline for our 2025 applications to Sunday 9th February - don't let another year of "maybe later" pass you by. Apply to be a mentor:?https://lnkd.in/e8MfPARz?
