Most successful businesses today rely on the lessons learned by their more experienced workforce. Therefore, it is important that these individuals become teachers or mentors to other such individuals who aspire to reach similar or greater heights. A successful mentoring program can strengthen the most important elements of a business and its people. Equally, reverse mentoring can play a significant role in this space as some of our most talented individuals could take some knowledge from up and coming generations

During this course, delegates will look at the requirements in establishing a constructive mentor-mentee relationship, key skills needed by those in a mentoring position, how to establish a mentoring programme and key experience from your teams.
