# Setting Up for Success - How to Build a Great Mentor Relationship  

The value and power of mentorship is unmatched when it comes to personal and professional development. Research shows that people with mentors advance faster and perform better, while mentors are provided with opportunities to share skills and develop future leaders. The benefits are undeniable, yet many are unclear of where and how to start.   

Join us for our first *Insurance Business *Women in Insurance Mentorship Network webinar and learn how to get the most out of a mentor/mentee relationship. This panel of senior insurance professionals will discuss examples of their own experiences as both mentee and mentor, while exploring best practices for relationship development, including:   

- Defining your goals and specific needs  
- Finding your ideal mentor/mentee   
- Developing an authentic connection 
- Setting clear relationship expectations and roadmap  
- Knowing if your match is the right fit
