Empowering future leaders

Minerva Mentors are leading professional women at the top of their field who mentor Minerva Athletes on the challenges of developing a professional career on & off the field.

What it means to be a Minerva Mentor

Minerva Mentors are leading professional women at the top of their field – Board Directors, C-Suite or equivalent across other industry sectors – who mentor Minerva Athletes on the challenges of developing a professional career on and off the field. A background in sport is not a requirement, nor do you need particular knowledge about your mentee’s sport. All time spent in the Minerva Network is on a probono basis.
