Speed mentoring is a networking exercise where people get advice in a series of short, one-on-one conversations with other mentors. In this session we will apply the “speed mentoring” technique to create opportunities for Latinas in Computing to identify new possible mentors/protégés. Participants go through a series of short interactions where they can get quick feedback on specific cultural situations, challenges, barriers, and opportunities.
