5 Types of Modern Mentoring That Can Benefit Your OrganizationKatie Mouton
Modern mentoring goes beyond the traditional one-to-one mentoring model that has been adapted through the years. Traditional mentoring is still popular, but with the increasing number of millennials joining the workforce, organizations are beginning to include more contemporary forms of mentoring. These programs embrace a new approach where everyone is considered equal, rather than senior or junior, and the mentoring environments are more casual or even virtual.
In this webinar, we discussed 5 modern mentoring concepts that can facilitate learning within your organization that is more agile and allows for a larger possibility of knowledge sharing.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

AWC Austin’s Mentor Program – successes, challenges and
lessons learned
In Summary
3. What is a Mentor Program?
A Mentor Program is:
• A teaching/learning process focused upon skills and professional
development
• A professional relationship to which a Mentor agrees to share their
knowledge, skill and perspective with an interested Mentee
• Members only benefit designed to encourage recruitment and
retention
Can be tailored to meet needs of members. Includes:
• One-on-one brainstorming and guidance
• Ad hoc availability for input
• Resume review and input
• All of the above
4. Who is a Mentor?
Anyone can be a mentor. Don’t sell yourself short!
"The greatest good you can do for another is not just to share your
riches but to reveal to him his own."
- Benjamin Disraeli
“We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give.”
- Winston Churchill
“Mentoring is a brain to pick, an ear to listen, and a push in the right
direction." - John Crosby
“Supporting other women in realizing their dreams is one of the greatest
gifts we can give - paying it forward - but the real gift is in what we get
back.” - Larissa Shapiro
5. Who is a Mentee?
Everyone needs a mentor, not just students!
“Mentoring got me out of my comfort zone and into the
learning zone which probably accelerated my learning by six
months.”
“My mentor made introductions and helped me build professional
connections to other parts of the business.”
“I am positive that I wouldn’t have landed this job without my
mentor’s help crafting my elevator speech, resume and her
great advice over coffee.”
6. Austin Case Study
Jane Baxter Lynn
(Mentor and Mentee)
•Impact on own career
•How it influenced my decision to join AWC
•Findings from mentoring – personal reward and
professional development
7. What are the Benefits?
• Membership and organizational value
• Opportunity for members to seek personalized career guidance
• Enhance and/or make connections with members
• Build leadership and coaching skills
• Personal reward of shaping someone’s path to success
8. How does it work?
• Define leadership within organization to manage program
• Roles and responsibilities of mentors and mentees need to be
clearly defined
• Important to make the program attractive to both mentors and
mentees
• Offer a flexible program to meet needs of mentors and
mentees
• Mentors and mentees should choose the method and
frequency of communication best suited to meet needs of the
mentees
9. Building a Mentor Program
It takes structure and resources to build a Mentor
Program. The program won’t run itself.
Structure and Resources
• Task force (minimum requirements)
• Chair to oversee program implementation
• Program Coordinator to manage mentor and mentee recruitment
and promotions
• Student Chapter Liaison to assist student population
•Mentor/mentee request forms online
•Survey or other methods to recruit mentors, build
repository prior to program launch
•Promotions – within organization and external
10. Promotional Tools

the conversation and make sure members know about the
Mentor Program.
• Web
• Newsletters
• AWC Chapter Online Forum
• Professional development luncheons
• Social media:
• Facebook
• Twitter
• Feature blogs
12. Mentor Program Challenges
• Mentor recruitment:
• Limited engagement from professional members
• Members do not think they are qualified
• Determining each mentors’ level of commitment
• Program awareness
• Mentees - Professional members not taking advantage of the
program as much as students are
• Determining whether to continue or end a mentorship
• Mentees being mindful of their mentor’s time and commitment
• Other?
13. Mentor Program Enhancements
Mentor Recruitment
• Demystify mentorship for mentors and mentees
• Help members understand they are qualified to serve: you don’t
have to be an executive with 20+ years experience
• Provide opportunity to serve on limited basis (ad hoc role,
resume review) and ensure mentors decide on level of
commitment up front
• Enhance frequency of promotions
• Encourage existing members to update their AWC profiles to
reflect interest in mentoring
• Include mentor “ask” in conjunction with membership renewal
letters
• Add field for Mentor Program participation in new member
registration form
14. Mentor Program Enhancements cont.
Program Awareness
• Build upon existing web content
• Social media platform for dialogue
• Enhance promotions for mentoring AND being mentored
• Dedicate one monthly luncheon each year to the Mentor Program
(utilizing our own experts)
• During speed networking luncheon, designate one station for
mentoring
• Bring mentors together quarterly to discuss what’s working and what
could be better
• Highlight that program is available at no additional charge for members
15. Mentor Program Enhancements cont.
Students
• Send professional members to meet with student chapters and
provide on-site mentoring in groups
• Develop Facebook page within Chapter Facebook for students
• Mentor “Speed Dating” event
The goal is to ensure all students are paired with mentors in a
timely manner.
16. Mentor Program Enhancements cont.
Mentorship Roles
• New program guidelines outline the roles and responsibilities of
mentors and mentees
• Mentors required to make initial contact
• Mentees required to keep the relationship going; however,
mentors can and should reach out to their mentees from time
to time
• If there is no contact between a mentor and mentee for more
than a month, it may be time to terminate the mentorship. This
allows mentors to take on new mentees.
17. In Summary
• Mentor Programs can be a major strategy for providing
member value and building membership
• Anyone can be a mentor
• Everyone needs a mentor, not just students
• Important to develop structure/guidelines and work with other
volunteers to build and maintain a successful program
• Utilize the free tools you already have to promote, promote,
promote
• Monitor success of program and continually find ways to
enhance it.
