Welcome to the Mowgli Foundation Knowledge Centre.
The Mowgli Foundation use a wide range of resources, concepts and tools to provide our mentors and entrepreneurs with the support they need to work effectively through our year long mentoring programmes (MMEs).
The Mowgli Knowledge Centre is where this information is gathered and we would like to share it with as many people as possible; as well as providing this resource to the volunteer mentors and entrepreneurs who are participants on Mowgli programmes.
What’s in the Knowledge Centre?(see the links on the right:)
First: the Skills Centre
The Skills Centre is for mentors and entrepreneurs, both for those engaged on a Mowgli Mentoring Experience and those who are not! It is divided into Leadership Skills (probably of particular interest to mentors) and Business Management Skills (which entrepreneurs may wish to start with). Each section, however, may be of interest to both learning groups.
The Skills Centre is subdivided into subject specific areas (like ‘Communication’) with original articles, tools and external resources. It is aimed at helping mentors and entrepreneurs alike understand the key skills and concepts used within Mowgli, all of which we believe helps mentors excel at leadership and entrepreneurs reach their full potential. There are also interactive exercises designed to help you learn.
Second, our Blog Archive.
This is arranged into two loose categories:
- The entrepreneurs tool kit, and…
- The ‘ask the mentor‘ section.
This is where you’ll find helpful blog posts written by and for Mowgli Mentors and Entrepreneurs (like “What are the qualities you need to be a great mentor?”) We recommend that you take a look at these once you are familiar with the concepts in the Skills Centre.
Want to talk to someone about what you learn in the Skills Centre?
We also have a Members Only section on the website, with Group Forums for each country we work. These forums are designed for anyone that wants to talk with others on the same learning journey. Here is where you can discuss with experts and peers the concepts and ideas that we work with in the Mowgli Foundation.
If you would like to register for the Members Only section, you are welcome to do so here. It is free to sign up, and there is no obligation to purchase anything. Our Members Only section is simply designed to make the Knowledge Centre a rewarding learning experience for all.
We hope that this Knowledge Centre is of use to you. If you have any feedback or questions, please contact the Mowgli team on info@mowgli.org.uk.
Good luck!
