The International Management Mentorship Program
MSM has developed the International Management
Mentorship as a platform to link our talented, experienced
and diverse group of MBA students on an individual basis
to representatives of the Dutch business community and
governmental institutions.This match allows mentors
and students to build mutually beneficial and durable
networks and relationships. For MBA students, the
mentorship program is a unique and much appreciated
opportunity to gain insights into Dutch business and
governance know-how.The initiative is also valued by
local representatives, who see it as a chance to broaden
their personal knowledge of foreign business cultures and
expertise. The precise content of the mentorship is jointly
determined by the mentor and the student. Professional
interaction is the main objective of the mentorship;
experience shows however that the most durable and
beneficial relationships are most often built in the
cultural and social sphere.

Become a Mentor
The management mentorship program is coordinated and
monitored by the MSM Admissions & Alumni Office. At the
start of the academic year, students provide a short personal
profile that serves as basis for the match-making process
with potential mentors.When there is a match a first
meeting is set up. Participating students are asked to write
a brief report detailing his or her experiences after each
meeting. At the end of the year both students and mentors
are asked to share their feedback with the Admissions &
Alumni Office.We kindly invite you to contact us to become
a mentor and to help us build business bridges between
the Netherlands and the rest of the world!
“My mentor and I soon discovered that we were both
interested in sustainable development.My mentor happened
to be well-vested in issues of sustainable energy. In the light
of climate change issues and considering that my country is
beginning to put sustainable energy sources in the fore
of development initiatives, I learned a lot from him.”
