SECTOR
MENTORSHIP PROGRAM

Our SMP aims at the development of sector-specific knowledge and skills. When candidates apply into the leadership development program, they are required to indicate a specific sector where they believe to have a passion for and would like to impact the world from.

Formal Sector Training

minimum frequency 

Once each month

Duration

2 hours

1:1 Mentorship

minimum frequency 

Twice each month

Duration

30 mins

During their time in this program, candidates are coached into nurturing/building a vision in their chosen sectors and guided on how to develop these visions into concrete and comprehensive strategic plans that will provide a roadmap for the realization of such visions. The organization has a team of passionate and committed individuals who will mentor successful candidates in the areas of business, education, faith, multimedia, philanthropy, production (creative arts) and real estate development. 

 

The Sector Mentor Program (SMP) runs concurrently with the Leadership Development Training; thus, it goes on for one year. While the goal of the SMP is to provide sector-specific knowledge/skills and close mentorship, how each Sector President achieves this is often unique to them. However, generally, aspiring leaders have a minimum of 2 hours of formal sector training each month and at least 1 hour of 1:1 mentorship (broken into two 30 minutes sessions) per month.

STRATEGIC DOCUMENTATION

Midway through the Leadership Development Training and Sector Mentorship Program, TGLC through the sector presidents helps aspiring leaders to start documenting their vision and plans. The table below shows our step-by-step guide to help aspiring leaders through their strategic documentation. 

Situational Analysis/Problem Statement

Write about the current situation, systems or problem that you have identified and believe your idea/vision will be solving or addressing. This should be a product of detailed research and analysis.

Vision statement

Write a concise, clear and simple vision statement to capture your vision (this should be a one sentence statement). Then explain in longer detail.

Mission Statement

Write a concise, clear and simple mission statement to capture your mission (this should be a one sentence statement). Then explain in longer detail

Internal Assessment

Do an assessment of your organization’s Strength, Weakness, Opportunities and Threat (SWOT). Explain how you plan to overcome your weaknesses and threat and how your idea/vision will take advantage of the opportunities

External Assessment

Perform (and write) an assessment of the external environment in which your organization operates. We recommend the use of at least one of the external analysis frameworks such as PESTEL (Political, Environmental, Socio-cultural, Technological, Environmental/Ecological and Legal) or Porter’s 5 Forces Analysis.

Strategic Objectives/Goals

Document your organization’s top strategic objectives. First make a list of those goals based on the SMART (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Time-bound) framework for goal setting. Then explain in detail (if needed) what those strategic objectives/goals are

Tactical Action Plan (TAP)

Write a detailed description of activities, programs, campaign, process and systems that you will put in place to achieve these objectives. This TAP can cover areas such as sales, expenditure management, fund raising, marketing, media, publicity, accounting, human resources, team building management etc.

Key Performance Indicators & Critical Success Factors

1. Document how and when you will measure/track success?

2.What metrics/indicators will be used to measure success?

3. How would you know you’re achieving your objectives and living up to your mission?

Review and Evaluation

Document when you plan to review your strategic document and what activities may cause you to review it before your planned periodic review.
