Association of Northwestern University Women (ANUW) mentoring is a mutual, one-on-one relationship through which one woman shares experiences, information, knowledge, and skills to assist in the personal and professional development of another woman.

Welcome to the ANUW Mentoring Program at Northwestern University!

The membership of ANUW asked for it and now it’s here! What began in late 2011 as an explorative look into the possibility of starting a mentoring program for ANUW members has now become a reality.  

ANUW is now pleased to announce the official launch of the ANUW Mentoring Program!  It provides an opportunity to network and build deeper partnerships with other Northwestern women. During the mentorship, both mentors and mentees will share experiences, build knowledge, and strengthen the Northwestern staff community.

What is mentoring? 
Mentoring is a caring, sharing, and supportive, one-on-one relationship with a focus on the enhancement of the mentee’s personal and professional growth and skill development. It creates a setting for instant help and advice. Mentoring offers insight into a variety of issues, and it is the sharing of expertise, values, skills, and perspectives.
