Women in A/AA - Reaching Higher Mentoring Program

Reaching Higher - Mentoring Program for Women in Aviation and Aerospace Australia

A structured program with a series of workshops/interactions, initial training, ongoing guidance and supports which offers benefits such as: 

  • Improving employee engagement and retention
  • Enabling knowledge sharing and career development 
  • Increased leadership capacity
  • Positively impacting financial performance (as a result of the above)

Formal mentoring programs are proven to have greater results than those that are informal or un-structured and will present a professional and support approach by A/AA.

  • Provide motivation and encouragement regarding overcoming challenges and the attainment goals;
  • Assist in developing insight into potential barriers to development; and
  • Challenge the individual where appropriate regarding assumptions, unrealistic and unconstructive though and/or behaviour patterns.
