PANEL

More than Robots: How Unique Mentor Backgrounds Shape Team Experience

Featuring: FRC 125, FRC 195, FRC 1768, FRC 2423

Great mentorship goes far beyond technical skills. In this panel, mentors from a variety of personal and professional backgrounds share how their unique perspectives—whether in education, trades, industry, the arts, or beyond—enrich their teams' experiences and culture. Learn how diverse strengths contribute to stronger relationships, creative problem-solving, and a more inclusive environment for students. Come hear stories, ask questions, and celebrate the many paths that lead to impact in FIRST.
