If you haven't heard - We've just launched three different memberships: Ladymates Leadership, Ladymates Collective & Engineers Collective.
Included in these memberships are "peer advisory groups" that meet once a month and form an incredibly valuable and popular part of the membership experience.
Keep reading for more information around these peer advisory groups that we keep harping on about.
✨ So, what are peer advisory groups???
👯♀️ Small groups based on professional experience, specific challenges you’re facing, location and stage in career journey
⭐️ Designed to help you navigate professional challenges, soundboard ideas, sense check decision-making, and build professional (and personal) career allies
🗓️ Running ~1 x per month
✨ How does it work?
During kickoff we will put you into a group of ~ 6 people. A huge amount of time goes into making sure you’re suitably matched. We’ll obviously introduce you at the outset and make sure you’re happy. THEN, once a month you and your group will meet up and follow this structure.
Steps:
💌 You’ll submit challenges you’re facing / discussion topics for peer advice and feedback to a slido
👍 Everyone will upvote discussion topics based on what they’d most like to work through
✨ Talk through discussion topics and work through challenges together
✨ Side notes:
- 🤝🏼 We usually encourage peer advisory sessions to run in person (if possible)!
- 🎉 This is fun and social!
- ⭐️ Each session you’ll grow closer as a group and want to lean on each other, learn from mistakes and successes, and gain clarity on what might work for you 💡
- 💬 Your peer group is there for you beyond just the live sessions, you'll have a private slack channel for soundboarding, sharing resources, and supporting each other.
This is by far one of the most special parts of the Ladymates Collective membership. I can’t tell you how valuable it is to be matched with other women who are facing similar challenges and are willing and open to sharing their vulnerabilities in a safe and accepting environment.
The level up following each of these sessions is INSANE.
