Migrant Leaders partnership with Salesforce brings this first insights day and workshop at Salesforce where our mentees were introduced to many Salesforce professionals to hear their career stories, tips and to network: Salesforce - YouTube

The workshop element used visualisation to help our Migrant Leaders mentees devise a storyboard with images of who they would each like to be in key areas of their life: work, health, relationships and purpose.

Shirley Morrison, Regional Sales Director Salesforce, shared the essence of the workshop: “I hope the mentees walk away feeling inspired today; we want them to get excited about the future and help them take the small steps to get there, and most importantly to believe in themselves that they can achieve anything.”

Proud of our Migrant Leaders partnership with Illumina bringing such opportunities, innovations and experiences to our talented young people. We look forward to continuing our collaborations with Illumina: Illumina - YouTube

Bobby Kaura at Illumina for Start Ups  explains: “Every now and then, in our additional responsibilities to work, we have the opportunity to extend our good fortune and privilege to others. As Chair of Illumina's EMEA group (Impact My Shade) for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, we got to partner with Migrant Leaders Charity to share our story and the work we do, with students from all backgrounds, hoping we can support the development of future leaders of tomorrow, today. This quote makes it all worthwhile: 'it was really inspiring and it gave a unique perspective in to a company that I had never heard of, that now I secretly want to work for' - Dhyey Ghetia, Migrant Leaders Mentee.
Thank you to Migrant Leaders, Elham Fardad and the Mentees for working with us.”

Elham Fardad, Founder & CEO of Migrant Leaders, said: “All our interns thoroughly enjoyed the experience and felt incredibly welcomed by the whole team.
