Roy Group & VMSA: Wise Council Workshop
The Wise Council: Knowing When and How to Offer Advice
At VMSA, we lead with coaching, but there are moments when sharing our experience, perspective, and advice can be exactly what a mentee needs.
The Wise Council is a Roy Group framework that helps Mentor teams do just that, in a thoughtful and structured way. Whether it's offering advice, sharing collective wisdom, or having a candid conversation about something a mentee may need to hear, the Wise Council provides a way to do so with intention and care.
It's particularly effective in a team setting, when trust has been established and Mentors recognize an opportunity to help a mentee see things differently.
Join us on December 9, from 1:30–3:30 AM via Zoom, for an interactive workshop facilitated by the Roy Group.
In true Roy Group fashion, you'll have the opportunity to:
Learn: Understand the Wise Council framework, when to use it, and how to apply it within your Mentor team.
Observe: See a live demonstration of the Wise Council in action.
Practice: Work alongside fellow Mentors to build confidence using the framework in real mentorship situations.
Come ready to learn, practice, and explore how to make the most of your team's collective wisdom while keeping the mentee in the driver's seat.
