Hang tight while we load the latest updates.

From the psychological significance of a parent-child relationship to the ravelling of the modern schooling system, in this discussion, we will approach humanity's attempts at passing knowledge on across generations and the lessons we can learn from them and apply in our daily social and professional engagements.

In this talk, you will be able to take away 3 things.

  1. A strong argument for the importance of mentorship in the building of a relatively new industry.
  2. A working knowledge of some of the underlying biological processes that undergird human development
  3. And a clear & PRACTICAL guide on how to begin your career as a mentor in your own domain of knowledge.
