Learning from a Mentor: Arienne Plourde and Lindsay White
How can a mentor help you as you face key life decisions early in your career? What can a mentor learn from her protege? The Martin Center's Mentor-Protégé program matches Communication students—usually in their junior year—with a member of our National Advisory Council or another seasoned communication executive. The matches are for at least one year and often two. On this episode, a current mentor and her protege discuss how they have made their match work effectively. The mentor is Arienne Thompson Plourde, a member of our National Advisory Council and senior program manager for community development and engagement at Google. For the last year, Arienne has been serving as a mentor to Lindsay White, a senior Communications major here at the College of Charleston. Listen to their description of this special relationship and the nuts and bolts of how it works.
