WIN MENTORSHIP PROGRAM

LAUNCHING FEMALE LEADERS

Women In Nutraceuticals was founded to empower women in nutraceuticals to unlock their personal and professional potential. WIN’s strategic goals are to bring more gender diversity to industry leadership by increasing the number of women serving in leadership positions and ensure better opportunities for rising female leaders. Data demonstrates companies with diverse teams experience improved productivity, innovation, and business success.

WIN’s six-month mentorship program is focused on improving soft skills, including critical thinking, creativity, effective communication, and empathy. Mentees are women who are passionate about the nutraceutical industry, comfortable with objective feedback and proactive learning, and committed to investing time in the relationship and professional development. Mentors are men or women who offer significant experience and stature, understanding of the nutraceutical industry, and a desire to collaborate on the mentee’s professional development goals.

WIN’s mentorship program is designed to support senior-level women interested in advancing their career to C-suite and board positions. Our expectation is to launch a full mentorship program to all senior-level WIN female members in early 2024. We also hope to launch a program to serve mid-level managers.
