Mentoring Service Guidelines
In each of our locations we cultivate an aspirational community experience that actively accelerates personal, professional and entrepreneurial success. We guarantee a supportive, welcoming community that will increase your productivity and connectedness.
Flywheel’s core values apply to the Mentor Deck program:
- Interested is interesting
- Be humbly confident
- Help first
- Follow up or fall out
The mentors in our program are experienced professionals and peers to the entrepreneurs they serve. They have been trained as coaches to give unbiased counsel and feedback. They won’t tell you what to do, but will use their experiences to identify solution pathways for the hurdles you might face along your journey. In their orientation training they have signed off on our program guidelines:
- No conflict of interest or self-serving behavior is allowed. Mentors are not allowed to solicit business nor invest in the ventures they serve, unless invited to do so by the mentee. The Flywheel Foundation program manager will review and resolve any questions.
- Strict confidentiality is expected to create an environment of complete trust. This a is non-negotiable guideline for the mentors.
- At the venture’s request, a formal mentor team of 3-4 mentors can be assigned for the benefit of diversity of coaching and skillsets.
