Program Features
Certified Mentors
All mentors undergo a thorough screening process to ensure they're a good fit for the program. Selected mentors complete KALA's Mentor Certification Program to equip them with the knowledge and skills needed to effectively guide mentees. Each mentor completes a DiSC assessment, which helps identify their behavioral style. KALA considers a mentor's DiSC style, experience, strengths, and skills when pairing them with mentees. KALA's strategic matching algorithm aligns the goals of the mentee with the mentor's experience, strengths, and personality. This fosters strong mentor-mentee relationships and the individualized support and guidance helps mentees to excel in their chosen career paths.
Monthly Challenges
Monthly professional development challenges encourage participants to step outside their comfort zones and continuously develop both personally and professionally. Challenges can boost growth by pushing participants to learn new skills, experiment with different approaches, and gain valuable experiences. A variety of challenges (like networking, personal branding, and incorporation of AI) allows participants to choose areas they want to focus on. While participation is not mandatory, it is encouraged.
Monthly professional development challenges are a fun and effective way to nudge participants towards continuous learning and growth.
Special Events
Program participants get access to special events throughout the year. Networking events allow participants to connect with professionals outside their immediate circle, potentially leading to new collaborations, partnerships, or opportunities. Expert engagements provide valuable insights and knowledge from industry leaders. Participants can learn new perspectives, best practices, and gain inspiration.​ These optional events enhance the program by offering learning opportunities that complement participant's goals and interests.
Round-Robin Peer Groups
In addition to one-on-one mentorship, mentees will also participate in a monthly Round-Robin peer group. These regular peer meetings provide an opportunity to connect with other participants, share experiences, and learn from each other's perspectives in small group settings. Mentees gain personalized guidance from their mentors and collectively learn from peer experiences throughout the program. This blended approach of individual mentorship and round-robin peer groups provides a well-rounded support system that can significantly enhance the professional growth of mentees while meaningfully expanding professional networks.
Resources
A comprehensive resource library contains materials on various subjects to support targeted learning. With resources on leadership branding, emotional intelligence, goal setting, and more, mentees can find materials directly relevant to their individual development plans. The library contains articles, videos, exercises, and conversation guides, catering to different learning preferences. Mentors can leverage the resource library to guide mentees towards specific materials that can enhance their development plan. Mentees can use the resource library to explore topics to discuss during mentor meetings, or for self-directed learning.
Career Investment
Programs are 12-months in length with built-in flexibility. Mentees should plan to dedicate approximately 20 hours throughout the course of the year, plus time to complete individual commitments in support of their professional development. An upfront Investment of 4 hours of onboarding ensures participants are well-prepared for the program. Each mentee receives 8 hours of one-on-one time with their mentor. Mentees and mentors can establish a meeting cadence and schedule that works best for them. Finally, 8 one-hour round-robin peer group meetings occur for 8 months of the program.
