What Do We Offer?

The Mentorship Program provides a unique opportunity for mentors to positively impact the lives of our LALíderes. Over 6 sessions held in 4 months, mentors help young leaders overcome challenges, address needs, and acquire new skills for their personal and professional development.

Mentors will also have access to spaces for strengthening soft skills, learning about new topics, and networking with peers from different countries. This program is an amazing opportunity to enhance your skills while helping develop the next generation of leaders in Latin America.

Mentorship is one of the exercises that teaches you the most and gives you emotional support in times of transition or the beginning of new stages in life, which is a constant occurrence at this age. LALA's Mentorship Program allows you to find information to solve the difficult technical questions you may encounter when making decisions. And at the same time, you can enjoy the process of building an interpersonal relationship full of support, vulnerability and mutual motivation that lasts beyond the months of the program and helps you continue with clarity towards your goals and the person you want to be.

The program is certainly an opportunity that everyone should take part in and experience at least once in their lives. With the help of the mentorships, I have seen a significant improvement in my life, and I believe that many young people also need this change. With the support of my mentors, I was able to get accepted into a Harvard International Relations program, the Soul Bilingual community and some internships.

Being a mentor at LALA has given me a challenge and a great responsibility, not only towards my mentee, but also towards myself, my methods and my tools. Exercising the practice of internal acceptance, in order to be able to listen to and embrace others, is not trivial and I believe that it has contributed, as a practice, to improving my communication and leadership skills. I learned to be a better leader with my LALíder."

As a mentor LALA was the most amazing opportunity to connect with leaders in other countries. I think the greatest joy of this process was been able to see my mentee take the route map of her dreams to start flying again. Mentoring is all about what you can give and learn from the people around you, and LALA is the best world to live that experience
