Mentor4OK Newsletter

News 2023

March/April 2023 | Issue No. 38

From the Editor

Above is a specialized form of mentoring in business, colleges, politics, and other organizations. We advocate mentoring, coaching, leadership development, internships, and apprenticeships. Make your mentees aware of sponsorships.


This issue is our next-to-the-last Mentor4OK newsletter. During COVID and the suspension of some mentoring, we endeavored to offer mentoring tips, connections, information, and best practices from other places and stellar Oklahoma programs. The goal for Mentor4OK to continue in the same way has ended, although we believe promoting and highlighting mentoring in Oklahoma and elsewhere has value.
