Unlock Growth and Development through In-House Mentoring Programs Make An AppointmentAbout CMAWhat Exactly is Mentoring?
Mentoring Basics
Organisational mentoring is a structured and intentional process that occurs within the context of an organisation, where more experienced individuals (mentors) guide and support less experienced individuals (mentees) in their professional growth and development.
Organisational mentoring programs aim to facilitate the transfer of knowledge, skills, and insights from experienced employees to newer or less experienced employees, promoting career advancement, skill acquisition, and retention within the organisation.
The focus of organisational mentoring is not only on individual growth but also on aligning mentees’ development with organisational goals, values, and objectives.
It helps build a pipeline of capable and motivated talent, enhances employee engagement, and contributes to the overall success of the organisation.
