INSEAD WiB Alumni-Student Mentorship Program Launched
Mentorship has proven to be a rich approach to learning and development for both mentees and mentors. We believe that a thriving, impactful mentoring program is within our reach, and with you as the Alumni involved, it can be a reality. INSEAD 18D class has set up a mentorship program, where the mentees for this program are current students in INSEAD’s MBA Class of December 2018. 
 
Please sign up here
 
We hope we can achieve an impactful program together.
WiB Student Club is excited to launch the IWiB Mentorship Program and have prepared a questionnaire to send out to potential mentors. The mentees are female students from the ’18D class and mentors will be given the option to continue to coach them even beyond their time at INSEAD.

To Overcome Your Insecurity, Recognise Where It Really Comes From

INSEAD Associate Professor of Organisational Behaviour Gianpiero Petriglieri and his co-author write that insecurity is neither a flaw nor a drive. It is a byproduct of a workplace culture in which individualism is rampant, relationships are instrumental, and bias goes unquestioned. To accept and overcome insecurity, we rather need to stop caring too much about each other and start to care more for each other, andfor the place we work in. HBR

Today’s leaders require a new sense of self

Reprinted from INSEAD Knowledge 
Gianpiero Petriglieri, INSEAD Associate Professor of Organisational Behaviour, and Jennifer Petriglieri, INSEAD Assistant Professor of Organisational Behaviour, find that contrary to what many believe, today’s “rootless” career men and women crave something to hold onto. Companies with programmes geared towards helping people craft such an identity (“portable self”) are likely to reap financial and cultural advantages. Forbes India

Collaborating with NGOs: A Strategic Alliance Approach for Journalists

INSEAD Adjunct Professor Mark Lee Hunter has spent a decade researching the emergence of NGOs and other“stakeholder-driven media” with INSEAD Professor of Technology and Operations Management Luk N Van Wassenhove and Professor Maria Besiou at the INSEAD Social Innovation Center. This is a trend that predated the eruption of fake news, and it is not going to end soon. It can be considered a competitive threat, or a collaborative opportunity. lobal Investigative Journalism network
