Women Governors Mentoring – New Zealand Olympic Committee Review Report February 2011
In 2009 some research on mentoring for women in the sport sector was undertaken and the New Zealand Olympic Committee’s Women in Sport Advisory Group established a trial mentoring programme. The programme has been a positive opportunity to trail a range of ways of mentoring women aspiring to be in governance roles. The programme ran over six months and has given some significant benefit for some of the women in the programme. Please read the report for more detail on the report and it’s outcomes.
