About Us
The U.S. Women in Nuclear Professional Development Committee initiated a program for mentoring within the U.S. WIN organization for those individuals who wish to gain the benefits mentoring and being mentored can offer. The GROW program was piloted in 2021 and will launch as an official program at the U.S. WIN 2022 Annual Conference. The program requires a 12-month commitment with a monthly commitment of approximately one hour.
The purpose of the program is to provide personal development, building a learning culture, build connections and community within the mentoring network, develop leadership skills, support diversity and inclusivity, develop self-confidence and self-awareness.
