HELPING TEAM MEMBERS BUILD CONNECTIONS WITH LEADERS & PEERS While having the right mentoring relationship can be a powerful tool for professional growth, team members are often challenged with how to get started. That’s why Behr created Mentoring Circles, one of Behr’s DEI initiatives, which provide opportunities to make connections with leaders and peers across the organization. In these online sessions, team members meet with leaders and peers in small breakout sessions. Leaders share their stories, insights and challenges on a specific theme, and team members ask questions and share their thoughts. Post session, participants follow up with any of the participating leaders for continued connections and informal mentoring. They’re also encouraged to make cross-functional connections with their peers.
