The Truth About Mentoring Minorities
summary
Shows evidence not slogans: a paid apprenticeship at Eighth Light that led to hands-on mentoring and introductions up to the CEO, a literature-backed claim that minorities are 61.29% greater chance to quit in some comparisons, and concrete mechanisms that help retention — building a network of mentors, combining coach and counselor roles, and confronting protective hesitation and stereotype threat. Expect case studies, numbers, and specific mentoring practices that did or did not work.
