Mentorship: It Takes Heart

12/2/2021

0 Comments

 
“The training and mentorship programs position transit workers as leaders who set quality service standards for the industry, provide support to new workers, take ownership of operations, and create solutions rather than problems…As a testament to the power of integrated worker voice, the mentoring program creates leaders in both management and unions, who in turn reinforce the value of working in partnership.”

​On Thursday, November 18th, CTW was invited by ZEBRA (Zero Emissions Bus Resource Alliance), to give a presentation on ZEB impacts on frontline worker training programs. ZEBRA (Zero Emissions Bus Resource Alliance) is composed of 48 agencies whose goal is to advance transit agencies’ capacity for ZEB adoption through information exchange, training programs, shared research and public education. We at CTW are excited to be working together with key personnel to meet the 2040 mandate that requires all buses in California to be all electric or hydrogen fuel cell by 2040.

​On July 13th, 2021, CTW conducted a mentor training class to help prepare both new and senior mentors for moving forward after being dormant for some time. The curriculum for the day included reviewing the mentor handbook, health and wellness activities, being a mentor, working with mentees, trust building, professional operator skills and the changing landscape in public transit. Two days after the training, the Golden Gate Transit Mentor Program put on a relaunch event to let the workers know who they are and what they do. In attendance were the Golden Gate Bridge District General Manager Denis Mulligan, GGT Deputy GM Mona Babauta, GGT management, mentors, CTW staff and more. The Mentors put together a dynamic presentation on what the program is and what they plan to do moving forward.
