executive mentor dedicated to you
When a high-level leader takes a keen interest in your professional development, it can change your career trajectory. The right mentor is a trusted adviser, a sounding board for complex decisions, and a connection to a broader world of thought leaders who can shape your future.
That's why we've woven mentorship directly into the fabric of this program. When you enroll, an experienced industry executive with direct experience in your industry or project area will choose to pair with you as your mentor. Your mentor will be a member of our outstanding network of technology executives at Northeastern's Center for Technology Management and Digital Leadership (CTMDL)—meet the mentors here.
Through residencies, workshops, and one-on-one collaboration, you'll build a relationship with your mentor—and other CTMDL executives—that will benefit you far beyond your graduation date.
Your mentor will . . .
- Support your master's project business plan by helping you shape your raw idea into a viable initiative, challenge your thinking as you develop a plan, and offer valuable feedback every step of the way
- Meet with you locally at least once a month and fuel your project's progress
- Help you build your network with other leaders who are relevant to your project or career
- Guide and prepare you for life in the C-suite
The mentorship was incredible. I worked with Nigel Taylor, who has held leadership positions at DHL, CIO, and Deutsche Telekom. His feedback, advice, and guidance were invaluable.
