Mentoring & Coaching based on 'Leadership of the Heart'
WFWP’s 'Leading into the Future' mentor program embodies a spirit of benevolence by empowering women who would not otherwise have the opportunity to grow as leaders.
Established women leaders generously offer their time and expertise pro-bono, providing mentorship, coaching, and guidance to emerging female leaders. This selfless contribution creates a supportive environment for personal growth, skill development, and leadership cultivation.
By nurturing heart-centred leadership and fostering meaningful connections, the program helps women realise their potential, breaking down financial and societal barriers. This initiative not only empowers individuals but also enriches communities, paving the way for a more inclusive and compassionate society.

WHY MENTORING & COACHING MATTERS ?
“It is well established that the economic empowerment of women isn't just good for women, it's good for everyone. Likewise, there is a growing body of evidence (including the latest report by McKinsey & Co) showing that when more women sit at the decision-making tables, better decisions are made.
Despite record numbers of women graduating college and entering the workforce, data still points to a 'leaky pipeline' - a large chasm between the number of women starting out on the professional track and how many advancing to senior positions. One of the many ways we can help to 'leak-proof' this pipeline is through mentoring.
A 2017 study by professional services firm Egon Zehnder found that only 54% of women have access to senior leaders who act as mentors or informal sponsors in their career.” Mentoring Matters "

What people are saying!
“As a young leader, being exposed to people who are in positions where I see myself in the future is so enriching and adds so much enlightenment to the approaches I take in decision making. My mentor from GWPN helped me recognize changes I needed to implement within myself, because before you go out to change the world, you need to change yourself first.
This 6-month self-development journey I shared with my mentor gave me guidance, but it inspired me to look beyond my current skills and aspire to be better for not just myself, but for those who look up to me as their leader.
I would love to recommend the program to anyone, no matter the age or experience. Overall, the experience was 10/10 and completely life changing.”
“I am honoured to write this testimonial for the Global Women's Peace Network - Leading into the Future program. As a mentor and coach in this program since 2021, I have had the privilege of supporting and guiding young women as they navigate their professional and personal paths.
The Global Women's Peace Network - Leading into the Future mentor program is truly unique in its approach to mentoring. The program is designed to provide young women with the tools, resources, and support they need to succeed in their chosen fields while also emphasizing the importance of community building and social responsibility.
As a mentor, I have been impressed by the dedication and passion of the young women I have worked with. They are eager to learn and grow, and they are committed to making a positive impact in the world. I am grateful for the opportunity to be a part of this program and to work with such inspiring young women. The Global Women's Peace Network - Leading into the Future mentor program is a shining example of the power of mentorship and the importance of empowering the next generation of female leaders.”
“I was honoured to be a mentor for the Leading into the Future mentor program. I was beautifully paired with the perfect mentee for my unique leadership and coaching skills. We were delighted to work together from the initial in person meeting and then established fortnightly online mentoring sessions.
My mentee diligent took inspired action to effortlessly achieve outstanding results, achieving all her short and mid-term goals.
I recommend this program to anyone interested in empowering future women leaders, and peace building. The WFWP team are inspiring and supportive in every way. Thank you so much for this opportunity!"
“The Women In Leadership program was a great experience. I was paired with a perfect mentor who had done a similar course, and I couldn’t have asked for someone better. Through fortnightly calls that were focused on personal development, I learnt about ways I can honour myself through good habits as well as how to communicate with others in a leadership role.
There were a range of tools I was introduced to, and I still reference them today in my work as a team leader. It is also a chance to get to know yourself better by being vulnerable in a safe space.
I would highly recommend this program to anyone interested in leadership or self-development in general.
There are many inspiring mentors engaged in the program who want the best for you and love to see you grow.”
“As a mentor in the Leading into the Future Mentor Program, I am honoured to have the privilege of guiding and supporting emerging leaders to develop their leadership skills and promote a culture of the heart.
Through this program, I have been given the opportunity to share my extensive experiences and insights as an established leader and coach.
Being part of a resilient leadership network that amplifies feminine qualities in leadership, empowers women leaders, and provides genuine leadership connections for women to thrive is a source of immense pride.
I am humbled to be a part of this program and the positive impact it has on the next generation of leaders.”
“I am deeply grateful to WFWP for connecting me with an incredible mentor and offering fortnightly coaching over six months. This support helped me overcome challenges, build confidence, and achieve meaningful goals.
At the start, I was sceptical and stuck in low self-esteem, feeling trapped in a job I disliked and unable to enjoy time with my family. My mentor's guidance, rooted in deep spiritual principles, helped me see my potential and believe in my ability to create a fulfilling life.
With this newfound perspective, I gained inner peace, transitioned to a better job aligned with my ambitions, and now feel happier and more balanced. I believe that as more people embrace opportunities like this, the world will naturally become a happier and more peaceful place - one fulfilled person at a time."
“I had the honour of serving as a mentor in the Leading into the Future Mentor Program. Over the course of six months, I had the privilege of working closely with my mentee while also attending inspiring Masterclasses run by other mentors on Saturdays.
I joined this program because I deeply resonate with its mission to amplify the feminine energy that women naturally bring into leadership. Throughout my time as both a mentor and participant in the Masterclasses, I found the experience to be profoundly inspiring and reassuring.
What stood out to me most was the heart-centred openness of all participants—mentors and mentees alike. Each individual showed up with a genuine willingness to learn and serve together, creating a supportive and empowering environment.
I also deeply appreciated the autonomy given to each mentor-mentee pair, allowing us to focus on what truly mattered for the mentee's growth. This flexibility, grounded in respect, compassion, authenticity, and kindness, ensured that every interaction was meaningful and impactful.
Without hesitation, I would say yes to being a mentor again in this program. I wholeheartedly recommend this initiative to any woman aspiring to become a heart-focused, authentic leader who seeks to serve and create a positive impact."
“I feel incredibly fortunate to have been part of the Leading into the Future mentor program as a mentee, where I worked closely with a mentor over the past nine months. This experience gave me much-needed clarity on my values and helped me explore potential career pathways. More importantly, it encouraged deep introspection, allowing me to understand why my actions and decisions reflected in certain ways.
My mentor facilitated thought-provoking conversations that challenged my perspectives and broadened my understanding. Their guidance was invaluable in shaping my personal and professional growth, making this mentorship journey truly transformative."
