MENTORSHIP PROGRAM

Women@Plaza’s pilot mentorship program launched in June 2023.

The mentorship program is designed to provide support and contribute to the personal and professional development of both mentees and mentors; support a culture of continuous learning, inclusion, and value creation throughout Plaza; and connect Plaza team members who may not otherwise have the opportunity to work together on a regular basis.

PERSONAL & PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

Women@Plaza continues to deliver professional development and lifestyle events, including through its webinar series, to contribute to personal and professional development. The most recent event was held on International Women’s Day, March 8, 2024 and featured an ESG-themed webinar with three outstanding women in the field of environmental studies – a professor and two students – who shared their views and experiences with Plaza employees and discussed why organizations should be concerned about the environment and the social impacts of their business.

Planning for the next webinar in November 2024 is underway.
