MENTORSHIP:
Virtual Mentorship Program:
At Global Gaming Women, we are proud to offer the One Up One Down Mentorship Program—a unique and impactful opportunity designed to foster connection, confidence, and career growth among women across the gaming industry.
This virtual program pairs less experienced professionals (“One Down”) with more experienced peers (“One Up”) in a near-peer mentorship model. By connecting individuals just a few steps apart in their career journeys, the experience becomes immediately relevant, highly relatable, and deeply empowering.
But don’t just take it from us—hear directly from past participants about how the program has shaped their journeys and built lasting connections.

Our goal is to increase visibility and support for women at all levels in gaming while creating a space where both mentors and mentees gain perspective, confidence, and community through authentic, career-shaping relationships.

Lean In Circles:◯ Through our Lean In Circles, women connect with one another to share advice, experiences, and best practices. Whether you’re new to gaming or an industry veteran, our programs assist in providing the tools and support needed to achieve your goals. ◯ Lean In Circles represent intimate gatherings of women who convene regularly to collectively learn and develop. These circles are specifically designed to harness the strength of peer support, mentorship, and the exchange of shared experiences. Many participants have described their Circle as having a personal advisory board, which empowers them to enhance both their personal and professional aspects of life. ◯ GGW Lean In Circles encompasses a wide diversity found within the gaming community, yet all participants share a common bond: the power of peer support. ◯ How can a Lean In circle help me? Circles will openly discuss topics to include, but not limited to:
Power, influence, and the art of persuasion
Gender equality
Work-life balance and the economics of well-being
Personal branding
Effective workplace communication
Inclusive leadership
Strategies for personal growth and confidence building and more! GGW Lean In circle applications are open to all women working in the gaming industry. Each year, in the fall, we open the application process for aspiring GGW Lean In Circle moderators and participants.
