Planning, designing and creating great mentoring learning and resources is what I do.
Being a mentor myself, I possess mentoring skills and know-how to pass on. I weave them into learning days and the resources and guides I write for you.
Mentoring works.
Your chances of success increase when you have the guidance and support of a good mentor.
It works for everyone in many settings, from bottom to top in an organisation.
Properly supported mentors
- Tend to have greater self confidence and mentee relationships that last
- Are able to accelerate their development and the range of skills a good mentor needs
- Have a wider range of options and choices in their 'mentoring toolkit' when working with a mentee
- Give valuable guidance using their experiences to pass their wisdom on

Building capacity
It’s important to continue to support, develop and recognise mentors. Training in-house is available to enable you to support and recognise mentors in the longer term and achieve a level of sustainability via:
One off coaching for mentor managers
Booster sessions for established mentors and mentor managers
Facilitated mentor network activities
I am a qualified mentor and will also consider mentoring one to one assignments if the fit is right
What my mentoring clients say
Get in touch today to discuss your mentoring needs
If you are setting up a mentor scheme, want some booster or mentor network activities or just need some resources and materials, I can help and support you.
Some reminders of why reflective practice is good practice for coaches and mentors. And how it’s different from evaluative practice. And that we need to do both.
