A Night of Speed Networking and Golfing

The chapter's annual Mentor Protégé Night at San Antonio's Topgolf in October brought representatives from the U.S. Army, Air Force, government and industry to attendees eager for knowledge. The event exposed Young AFCEANs to mentors from various career fields and supported the sharing of knowledge and lessons learned among all attendees. Guest speaker Jeff Reich, Information Systems Security Association (ISSA) Hall of Fame and distinguished fellow, spoke to the crowd about the importance of mentorship. He left the group with a challenge to "find someone who doesn't deserve a mentor, and mentor them." Charles Weissenborn, vice president of Young AFCEA, asked the group to keep an open mind about who mentors can be: "Mentors aren't just superiors. They can also be peers. Leaving here, don't make this a one-time meeting. Follow up with the mentors you met, and make a connection."
