What does Leadership mean to you? How does being vulnerable in building your mentor and mentee relationship add to the success of these relationships? This past Monday (February 14th <\/sup>2022<\/em>) GMS and their C3 Center (Community Catalyst Center<\/em>) in partnership with the Graduate Student Affairs office hosted \u2018Vulnerable Leadership Part I<\/a> with guest speaker Dr. Jerry M. Whitmore Jr. from Wheelock college. The session enriched attendees with how to take the next step in being a leader but also how to find a mentor through vulnerable communication and professional relationship building.<\/p>\n

Dr. Whitmore shared his experience through his own education as a first-generation disadvantaged student and how finding mentors who shared similar experiences and identities helped propel not only his academics and future professional career, but professional and personal development through support, mentorship, and vulnerable communication. Dr. Whitmore shared that through social and academic integration, finding your voice, your leadership approach and learning the educational process leads to finding a mentor who can provide valuable leadership and support that will continue well past your academic career and into your future professions. Dr. Whitmore argues, \u201cif vulnerability is discouraged, we will lose ability in this space\u2026to promote integrity, identity, and purpose.\u201d<\/p>\n
