Making the most of mentoring
The CPD certification service

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION

When you’re faced with challenging situations in the workplace, it’s easy to forget that we’re not alone—that our colleagues or even our manager may have encountered similar issues. How can we turn this insight into action? Finding a mentor is a great way to work through problems and receive specific guidance from those who have navigated similar challenges. In this session, you will uncover how to establish a rewarding and productive mentor/mentee relationship, and how it can be utilised to benefit the confidence and career trajectory of the individuals involved—and your organisation as a whole.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

1. How and why mentoring can be so impactful.
2. How a ‘mentoring culture’ can benefit both the individuals and the organisation.
3. The difference between mentoring and simply ‘giving advice’.
4. How to identify when you need the support of a mentor—and be able to spot when others do.
5. Essential skills to help you mentor others effectively.
