The 5 stages of developing a mentoring program

All our next level business mentoring programs follow a simple 5 stage iterative process to ensure there is structure to building your program.

The closed loop allows feedback from previous programs to help improve the next programs to your people.

The philosophy you should adopt is

  1. your first program will be good.
  2. your second program will be great
  3. your third program will be outstanding.

By the time you have run 3 programs you will have developed a culture of mentoring within your company.

The 4 principles for a mentoring program.

 We believe in four principles when designing a successful mentoring program. These four principles support one another and are equally valuable to ensure your program is a success for your company, and your employees.

 

Simple

A simple structured business mentoring program is key. It needs to be easy to understand, low pressure, has clearly defined roles, and doesn’t overwhelm people with unnecessary information or requirements, allowing the program to flow smoothly.

Sustainable

Identifying barriers that could affect your program, and creating solutions to overcome them, ensures your program will be sustainable. Next Level Mentoring design your program so anyone within your company can run it, rather than relying on specific people for it to be a success.

Effective

Mentors and mentees should establish goals for what they want to achieve with the program and align them alongside your company’s strategy and values. We provide effective tools, templates, guidance and software to make this happen.

Engaging

Make it fun and exciting! Having mentors and mentees enthusiastic about how great the program is, is a great way to showcase your company, and encourage others to want to be part of it.

You can learn more about the 4 principles in our article what makes a great mentoring program.

When done correctly, mentoring is an effective way of attracting and retaining your people.
