Mentoring

​

The definition of a mentor is ‘an experienced and trusted advisor’.

 

Mentoring can be thought of as a form of apprenticeship where someone who is less experienced in a situation learns the ‘tricks of the trade’ from someone who has more experience in that area. 

 

Mentoring in the workplace is not only for new joiners who need a buddy to show them the ropes, its useful for many situations such as career re-evaluation, progression, job satisfaction and handling change.

 

Having a mentoring programme in your organisation shows your employees that you are committed to their development, and you are ‘giving them permission’ to take time out to invest in themselves to improve their performance and assist their progression.

 

We can support you with setting up an internal mentoring programme and its ongoing management or provide your mentors and mentees with the training they need to get started.
