About Me:
I am a graduate of Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Nigeria. After graduation, I started an indoor flower sales to corporate bodies and individuals, after 2years, I started a job with a Telecommunication company, But I just have the firm believe that I am an employer not employee, I decided to look out for individuals who have an international platform, so they could mentor me, It worked for me, my !st mentor worked and resigned with both Chevron and Shell for 0ver 10years, I got another mentor who worked with JP Morgan Chase bank in the US, my learning path gave me an Edge, I was mentored by them and also worked for over a year without pay. but it pays me today, I came up with a product called- The Corporate Menteeship - How to attract a mentor and get the best from mentoring, i have started using the product in community based project in Nigeria, I'm hoping to go through the entire Africa and beyond.
What do you hope to learn, or share, on this forum?
I want to learn more on how to bring change to Africa through mentoring and to share and learn more on How to attract a mentor.

The Australian Youth Mentoring Network has some of the best resources I've seen. I'd love to have someone from that group participate in this forum.
I will use the articles then Dan, I will ever remain grateful to you and Ann of Mentoring works from Australia, You can check her web site on www.mentoringworks@yahoo.com. Thank you Dan.
I enjoyed reading some of your blog articles. If any of the graphics that I share on this site help illustrate your ideas, please use them in your blog.
Maybe you've figured all of this out. If you have, it would be valuable to share that thinking on your blog or a web site as part of your own efforts to attract people to use the training program.
I encourage you to introduce this into the Africa sub group and see if you can get feedback from any of the other people who are part of this group, and from Africa.
Your focus on workplace mentoring is important because unless we get the business community to encourage employees to connect with young people, and to provide the resources to support the programs where they connect, we'll never have enough of the resources to operate many tutor/mentor programs, or sustain them for as many years as each needs to stay in business, and constantly improve.
I hope you'll borrow from the ideas, add your own, and help us draw business decision-makers into this discussion.
