Talkin' Bout [Infosec] News

They say it “takes a village” to help raise a child… well, it also takes a village to help raise an infosec professional. With so many technologies, techniques, and tools and the need for soft-skills and the ability to navigate different types of relationships, we all need help. That’s where a formal mentor can be your guide into the unknown.

We ALL can benefit from being mentored and being a mentor.

In this live Black Hills Information Security (BHIS) webcast, we’ll discuss:– How to know if you need a mentor– How to find a mentor– How to be a mentor– How to be a mentee– How to ask someone to be a mentor– Multiple mentors– Difference between mentors, friends, tutors, career counselors, etc.– What to discuss during a mentoring session– How to make the best use of everyone’s time– When to end a mentoring relationship
