Mentoring
Mentoring occurs when an individual with more experience lends advice, support, guidance and encouragement to someone with less experience. A mentoring system can be rewarding to the individuals involved and effective to the organization overall.
While junior employees forge their career paths and receive support and advice from fellow workers, they are also learning about the organization and contributing to the corporate culture. Your senior employees will feel satisfaction from assisting another colleague with their development and will be engaged and acknowledged for their skills and experience in a meaningful way.
In order to be successful, a mentoring program must include: trust, honesty, balance, respect, commitment and humour. The Right Path Consulting Group can help you develop and maintain a mentoring system with all of these characteristics. We can design a program that meets your needs, market the program to employees, facilitate the matching process, offer support to participants and evaluate program effectiveness.
We also set up mentoring programs for small business networks. Sole proprietors have numerous gifts and talents that can be shared with other entrepreneurs to everyone's benefit.
