Official web page for the OSF female mentorship program, Her Next Step. HER NEXT STEP An OSF Initiative empowering young women with leadership skills and development for personal success and leadership. *AI generated image PROGRAM OUTLINE MP-I MP-II MP-III Mentorship & Professional Exposure September - November During this first phase, our mentees are immersed in a rigorous mentorship experience with industry professionals across various fields. Every second weekend, they participate in a scheduled one-hour training session where they connect directly with mentors, ask questions, and gain practical insight into different career paths and key leadership skills. As part of this phase, mentees also begin developing their personal action plans using the SMART method — setting goals that are Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound. This gives them a clear structure for identifying what they want to achieve, tracking their progress, and staying accountable throughout the program. Beyond the sessions, mentees are encouraged to build meaningful professional connections, introduce themselves with confidence, and learn how to put themselves forward through powerful personal narratives. This phase is designed to stretch and expose them to new possibilities,. Learn more... Capstone Project June - August During this final phase, mentees move from learning and reflection into practical execution. They work individually and also come together in small teams to develop ideas for their capstone projects that respond to real needs within their communities, schools, campuses, or country in general. Building on the action plans developed in MP1, mentees are encouraged to identify a meaningful problem, design a simple but impactful solution, and apply the skills they have gained throughout the program — including communication, leadership, confidence-building, teamwork, problem-solving, and strategic planning. Throughout this phase, mentees receive structured check-ins and mentor feedback to help them refine their ideas and strengthen the quality of their projects. They are also encouraged to think beyond completion and consider the sustainability value of their work, how their initiatives can create lasting value for others. The capstone project becomes a practical expression of their growth and leadership potential to build positive change within their communties and demonstrate that they are capable of turning ideas into action. Learn more... Community Building & Team Bonding February - April During this phase, mentees focus on deepening their sense of community and developing initiatives that foster sisterhood, trust, and long-term friendship. The program intentionally creates space for the girls to move beyond individual growth and begin building a supportive network with one another. Weekly group reflection sessions, known as “rant sessions,” give each mentee the opportunity to express herself, share her thoughts and feelings, and be heard in a safe, respectful, and supportive environment. Mentees also participate in more in-depth check-in meetings with mentors, where they review their action plans developed in MP1, reflect on their progress, and receive strategic feedback on their personal and professional development . This stage is designed to strengthen confidence, emotional safety, peer support, and accountability — helping each mentee understand that growth is not only personal, but also communal. Learn more...

Her Next Step connects bright ambitious girls aged 18-25 with accomplished female mentors who are committed to nurturing the next generation of female leaders.
