Being an LGBT person in
the business world can provide a unique perspective that can be rewarding
both personally and professionally. But alongside those rewards are a
number of unique challenges – from the decision whether or not to
come out at work to legal issues surrounding non-discrimination clauses and
partner benefits.
The challenges are difficult
for all LGBT persons, but perhaps none more so than those who are just
beginning their professional careers. As such, Q@Haas has started QMentors, a
program pairing MBA students with undergraduates for advice and personal perspective
on the working world.
QMentors is a program
started in the spring of 2007 to...
- Connect
LGBT MBA students with undergraduates on the Berkeley Campus,
- Provide
professional support for LGBT students just starting their
professional career,
- Help
MBA students to build their personal leadership and mentorship skills.

Program Requirements:
The commitment is
minimal, but the rewards can be unlimited. You will be paired as
soon as possible and the mentorship relationship will conclude with the
school year. Mentors/Mentees are required to meet individually at
least twice/semester and to attend one social event each semester for all
QMentors participants.
If you have any
questions, please email Nick Jablonski.
