About Us
As a proud woman-owned, woman-led business since 1991, Menttium is the recognized leader in cultivating professional mentoring experiences that enable leadership development in the global business community.
Our Founding and Leadership
Menttium was founded in 1991 in Minneapolis, Minnesota and started with a cohort of 100 women in the Twin Cities and matching each with an external mentor from various corporations in the area. This groundbreaking idea became a global success, evolving from Minnesota 100 to global cross-company mentoring programs. Today, it’s a driving force for leadership worldwide, proving that innovation and impact know no boundaries.
Lynn Sontag, Menttium’s owner, joined the business in 1996 and took on the CEO role in 2002. Under her leadership, Menttium expanded its program offerings to include additional cross-company programs for mid-level leaders, and executives as well as growth across our consulting services to help companies design and implement internal mentoring programs. Menttium expanded its reach and footprint, solidifying our place as the leaders in mentoring. We are proud of not only what we do, but how and why we do it.
