Welcome to Odyssey,

"I realize for the first time in my life how much I can share and how much I can get from someone with whom I have established a deep professional relationship."

I regard this program as an excellent one which represented me a very interesting and positive experience in my life, both personally and professionally.

"I appreciated very much the opportunity to meet a mentor outside the company, colleagues and daily business, providing a chance to open the eyes and see new potential."

What is really fantastic is that Odyssey enables cross-company interactions and best practice sharing, so important for female top-managers–to-be. Truly unique and off-beat is its well noticeable spirit which is given by the fact that both mentors and mentees participate on a voluntary basis.

“Odyssey není jen o práci a kariéře, ale i o novém přátelství. Nedávno mne potěšila mentorka se slovy: Přemýšlela jsem ráno na koho čekám, a já se vlastně těším na mojí kamarádku"

We shared profesional and personal experiences which pushed both of us forward, and I learnt how to avoid a number of beginners mistakes.

I realised that commercial organisations were closer to NOP's than I had thought and began to see our operations in a new light.

"Odyssey is not only a great idea, but especially a great experience and inspiring journey for me as a mentor."

The Odyssey program is accelerating gender balance through mentoring and establishing networks at the most senior levels. I am proud to be a member of this important effort.

"I know I wouldn’t have a chance to discuss my issues and get such help from a CEO if I wouldn’t be a part of Odyssey"

"Every time I meet my mentor I am full of energy, self-confident and motivated to overcome any difficult situation that is ahead of me"

"I whole-heartedly recommend program Odyssey to all women wanting to widen their point of view and gain valuable experience. This program is enriching for me."

"I would recommend Odyssey to talented women who have doubts about themselves but have a lot to offer and a great potential to succeed with a bit of help."

"I am always surprised by the immense power of sharing knowledge and new fresh points of view."

My mentor helped me to realise that empathy and respect would make me a more efficient communicator.

My year long professional realtion with my mentor evolved into a relationship. What other programme can claim this?
