Mentor Connect 🤝

Cross-groupNetworking

Mentor Connect is a structured mentoring program built on 6-week cycles. Define mentors and mentees as two groups, and CoffeePals pairs them, re-matches after each cycle, and keeps the rhythm going so growth becomes routine.

How it works

  1. You define the groups by role — mentors as one group, mentees as the other. Cycles run six weeks; pairings re-match after each cycle for diverse exposure.
  2. Participants pick their group(s). People self-select which group they belong to from the options you’ve set up. Admins can also assign membership directly.
  3. CoffeePals only forms pairs across groups — no one is ever matched with someone from their own group.
  4. For anyone without a cross-group partner, you choose: skip them, add to an existing match, or form a random fallback pair.
  5. Matches get an intro that names both groups so the context is clear before they meet.

Who it’s for

  • Companies investing in formal mentorship without the manual matchmaking
  • Mentees wanting consistent access to senior perspective
  • Mentors looking for structured ways to share what they’ve learned

What you’ll configure

  • Match groups and rosters
  • Self-selection vs admin assignment — let people pick their own group, or assign them
  • Unmatched policy — skip, add to existing, or random fallback
  • Frequency, day, and time
  • Icebreakers and calendar scheduling
