Beyond Coaching, Mentoring

Championing for performance improvement

Overview

Mentoring is a process of building workplace relationships to empower individuals to develop personal and professional abilities, achieve performance goals at increasingly higher levels, and make progress toward their career goals. The 16-hour workshop provides a systematic approach to understanding and influencing mentees, a new plan for dealing with someone you need to influence now and a methodology for reducing personal stress. Participants will be able to demonstrate an authentic commitment of time, energy, planning and resources to mentoring.
