shesaid.so and Keychange relaunch we.grow mentoring programme in 2021
Following a successful online peer-to-peer we.grow mentoring programme in 2020 (read more here), shesaid.so and keychange have relaunched the we.grow mentoring programme, which will run June 2021 - September 2021. Recognising the need for more traditional mentoring to help guide Keychange participants through this difficult time, today shesaid.so and Keychange launch a call-out for senior music industry professionals and artists to volunteer as mentors for the Keychange participants. The mentors must have a minimum of 7 years experience in the music industry, and will be paired with one of the exceptional, hand-picked Keychange participants all chosen as the leaders of tomorrow by a panel of international industry experts.
If you would like to volunteer to be a we.grow mentor, apply here. We welcome applications from all genders, all backgrounds, and all countries.
we.grow aims to address a trend of growing concern in the music industry - women and gender minorities not showing the confidence they need in order to fulfil their career goals; and a lack of senior role models. This project seeks to explore some of the drivers of this trend and to equip participants to address any challenges they may face. A key part of this is ensuring that women and gender minorities from all backgrounds have the opportunity to meet, learn and be motivated by positive role models.
