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 Undegraduates 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.
