Are you wondering how to attract and retain employees and increase satisfaction as we continue to hear about the “great resignation�? Mentorship has been proven to be a successful method of employee engagement that gives participants a chance to share their knowledge while making a difference. This can reduce stress and increase satisfaction. Having facilitated over 1,200 mentorship matches, StartOut is familiar with the impact these relationships have. StartOut Mentorship Program Manager Derrick Foust and Wealth Advisor’s Vice President Eve Ellis will be joining us to discuss how corporations have partnered with StartOut to implement their own mentorship programs for employees while supporting LGBTQ+ founders
