The ‘Why’
At Mentorange, our journey began with a vision – a vision of quality mentorship.
In a world where mentors are dedicating valuable time to program management rather than delivering their expertise, we saw an opportunity for change. There is an abundance of mentors offering programs in diverse ways, but we sensed a pressing need for a unified platform.
We envisaged a space where Mentors and Mentees could converge, where the focus would solely be on the subject matter, while everything else seamlessly fell into place.
Out of this vision, Mentorange emerged, a vibrant community that brings together seasoned educators and eager learners on a technologically driven platform. We harness the power of automation to not only simplify but elevate the educational experience, ultimately contributing to a more enlightened world.
Our Mission: To Become the Premier Mentoring Platform Worldwide.
Our Story
Danish Naglekar, one of our founders, and a proud Microsoft MVP has been in the world of mentoring for years, specializing in topics like achieving work-life balance and mastering the art of multitasking at work.
But here's the twist: while delivering his mentorship programs, Danish encountered a series of time-sucking challenges:
- Creating registration forms
- Manually selecting mentees from LinkedIn
- Managing notifications and materials
- Finding a suitable platform
- Hosting sessions and ensuring accessibility
- Navigating multiple social media platforms
Imagine juggling all this while working a full-time job! It became clear that Danish wasn't alone in this struggle.
So, he decided to reach out to fellow mentors and discovered they faced similar issues. That's when the spark of inspiration struck: Why not build a platform that could solve these problems for mentors everywhere? educational experience, ultimately contributing to a more enlightened world.
And thus began the journey to create a user-friendly, hassle-free platform where mentors can focus on what they do best – sharing knowledge and enriching lives.
