While the two terms are often linked, induction and mentoring are quite different in their focus and intention. Induction is a process whereas mentoring is one of a number of actions that can support the induction process (Figure 1).

If you don't yet know exactly what help you need, that's fine... but let them know. They will know a bit about you already, but you should be prepared to start the conversation by saying something like ``Should I tell you why I signed up for a mentor?'' Allow them an easy opt-out at any point.
Once you have an agreed-upon agenda and setting for the meeting, the host can send a notice to all shareholders and board members invited to the AGM. Annual shareholder meetings require a notice period of at least 21 days. The notice period can be shortened with the expressed consent of all shareholders.
AGMs are mandatory for both public and private companies. All shareholders are legally obligated to receive an invitation to these meetings. The board of directors should also be represented. An auditor may also be present if the organization is subject to an audit requirement.
You may vote to: Elect members of the board of directors. Appoint auditors. Accept resolutions. For example, if the board wants to change the number of board members, it has to submit a resolution to a vote of shareholders. Approve the by-laws adopted by the board of directors.
The first shareholder meeting is an organizational meeting where shareholders ratify and approve the actions of the incorporators. Shareholders also approve shares values, appoint directors and officers if needed, and wrap up other initial tasks.
