Mutual Mentoring: “Benefits to not only the person traditionally known as the mentee
but also the person traditionally known as the mentor.”

Through intervision sessions we create a network of mutual or reverse mentoring matching competences and questions on both sides.

Reverse mentoring was introduced by Jack Welsh who invited a young employee to help him improve his digital skills while he introduced him into the tacit knowledge of the company. General Electric, Procter&Gamble, Deutsche Telekom, Time Warner, Janssen Pharmaceutica are a few companies that adopted this method.

UCLL embraces this method to both share tacit knowledge about entrepreneurship and the Flemish/ Belgian society as well as insights in other models of entrepreneurship and interculturality.
