Mentors for San Diego New Leaders Council in 2010

The New Leaders Council in San Diego (NLC) is proud to announce the selection of our mentors for the 2010 class of Fellows.

Each year through the NLC Institute, Fellows are paired with Mentors who are 10 or more years along the road to where the Fellows themselves want to be in their careers. The Mentors provide guidance for Fellows' professional and civic lives.

The NLC is one of the very few programs for young professionals that provides direct one-on-one career mentorship. Graduates from the NLC Institute routinely describe the mentorship component as among the most valuable parts of the program.

The San Diego NLC chapter is particularly fortunate to have so many Mentors from the very peak of civic leadership in our community. The San Diego Mentors are leaders in business, law, politics, social change, advocacy, education and philanthropy.
