feM-LEAD at PSI, Empa and WSL (fka. PSI Mentoring Programme for Women with Leadership Ambitions)

The Mentoring Programme is a competitive programme aimed at women, who would like to take on a leadership role in the future. It initially started in 2018 and finished its pilot phase in the end of 2020. The Mentoring Programme will be continued beyond this phase and has been externally evaluated as unique due to:

- being open for all women (scientists, technicians as well as women working in administration)

- being open for women who have not yet taken on a leadership role

For the first time now the programme will also include ambitious mentees and mentors from Empa and WSL.
