Exchanging Ideas and Experiences

Mentor, Beth Harris, CPSM, with her mentee, Steve Ryherd, LEED AP, at the Build Business conference.
The mentoring program is a great opportunity to gain one-on-one industry and career advice from a seasoned professional. We encourage participation from all SMPS members, no matter what your experience level and specific mentoring needs. The program will provide participants with matching, training, and support for one year.
The Mentoring Program Strives to:
- Affirm our commitment to SMPS members and their development at every level
- Foster cross-organizational communications and share institutional knowledge
- Meet the needs of mentees for career enhancement information and advice, and of mentors to develop skills and see different viewpoints
- Improve mentees’ ability to do their jobs well by providing them with new information and perspectives, as well as their own career options
The SMPS Atlanta mentoring program is the reason I joined the organization. It provided me the unique opportunity to discuss issues I was facing in my career with someone who knows the AEC industry. SMPS Atlanta is full individuals who are a wealth of knowledge. Their experience is invaluable, and I am thankful for the time and energy my mentor continues to afford me to this day. Mentoring is a great value to members—don’t pass it up!
