PROGRAMME OVERVIEW

 Developing stronger relationships among colleagues drives results within the organization and with vendors and partners. These relationships cannot be developed without strong mentoring and coaching. To develop these skills, mid- and senior-level leaders must have the tools to drive coaching and mentoring initiatives.

Distance is a critical challenge when building a culture of coaching and mentoring. Remote employees, cultures, age and geography all impact the ability to coach for strong results. Careful focus must be utilized to create the right environment and relationships for mentoring and coaching.

Additionally, commitment is related to all the other success factors. To get commitment from employees, you must lead by example and demonstrate your willingness to adapt to and thrive in the working environment.

A powerful way to engage employees, improve performance, and build loyalty is to create a mentoring programme. Pairing less experienced workers with tenured workers can help keep lines of communication open. It demonstrates an interest in the long-term goals and success of employees, identifies opportunities to meet those goals, assists in succession planning, and passes on values and expertise.

A mentor provides professional advice and support. He or she willingly shares knowledge, experience and often personal and professional network contacts. Successful mentoring can help less experienced individuals navigate away from costly mistakes. For a mentor, the relationship provides an opportunity to gain a fresh perspective and the satisfaction from guiding others to professional success.
