Let's summarize the results of the week on Artem Korolev's social networks.

Artem He told me about a special program at one of the foreign universities, in which each student is assigned to a graduate. In three months, the mentor and the mentee hold six meetings where they discuss career goals, resumes, internships, interviews, and first professional steps.

In this model, the founder of the CASE-IN is close to its duration.: "We often expect a great effect from one meeting with an expert. But the real benefit comes when a person can return to the mentor with new questions, show their progress and receive advice on specific situations. We are thinking of applying a similar approach in CASE-IN. New teams will be able to work with experienced teams during the season: discuss preparations, sort out mistakes, receive advice on role allocation, organization of work and preparation for defense."

In continuation of the mentoring topic, Artem Korolev noted That 's the second year The best CASE-IN experts and ambassadors come to the Mashuk Knowledge Center, where they work on a new generation mentor competence model.

"This year, they defined what a mentor should be able to do: listen, explain complex things in simple language, give feedback, support participants, set tasks, and constantly develop themselves., – said the director of the Reliable Shift Foundation. – Mentoring is often based solely on personal experience, and everyone understands this role in their own way. The general model allows us to systematically train mentors, evaluate the quality of their work, and disseminate best practices in CASE-INS, universities, and companies."

The development of an engineer and mentor should actually begin with kindergarten, stated Artyom, in another publication, cited the example of the "Russian Engineering School": "This is not a separate educational institution, but a continuous human journey: the first interest in the structure of the world, technical creativity at school, vocational education, solving real problems of companies, starting a career, and then returning to the system as an expert or mentor. This is not a set of individual activities for different ages, but a system that helps a person go all the way from their first interest in technology to their willingness to develop others."

He shared the success stories of Maxim Bogachev and Anastasia Ustyuzhanina, who are successfully following this path.

Artem Korolev, have you noticed unexpected risks from the spread of artificial intelligence: AI takes away simple tasks from young professionals, where they have to learn, make mistakes, and try different approaches. Now a young engineer risks losing the experience that shapes professional thinking.

But everything is fixable: Director of the foundation gives advice how to use AI correctly to overcome the described risks.

At the end of the week, he recommended There are 4 books worth reading in August.
