Mentorships

At 3M, wisdom is shared. Just as we share and combine our technologies, we also share and combine our knowledge through mentorship and storytelling. We define mentoring as a unique relationship in which a mentor (a more experienced person) helps a mentee (a less experienced person) with their development in a particular area.

From executive, regional and functional mentoring to cause-based and informal, 3M offers a mentorship opportunity appropriate virtually for every individual. We value your unique career journey and want each employee to learn and grown in a nurturing, challenging and respectful environment. We understand the important role that relationship-based development can play in helping employees navigate 3M culture, environment, opportunities and more.
