The benefits of implementing Mentoring for Success™
|
|
|
 |
| |
Over the last few years, clients have experienced such positive
results and benefits from their Mentoring for Success™ intervention,
we have consolidated some of them below, in order for you
to identify the one’s that are important to you.
|
Attracting, Developing
and Retaining excellent talent |
The opportunity of being partnered
with an experienced senior manager is highly desirable to young
graduates and employees and has proven to be an attraction during
recruitment initiatives. Clients also confirm that Mentoring
for Success™ has given them the ability to hold onto good talent
longer, due to the mutual benefits and rewards experienced through
personal growth and development in a focused relationship
|
Sharing and retention
of the Corporate Memory
|
75% of an organisations core competencies – it’s
skills, knowledge, behaviours, values, processes and relationships,
are stored in the tacit memory of a few experienced managers and
executives. This is a potential time bomb waiting for the wrong
set of circumstances. The structured nature of Mentoring
for Success™ ensures
that the sustainability of key components of the Corporate Memory
are shared with, retained and leveraged by the next generation
|
Succession Planning
and Talent Management
|
The continued loss of wisdom, experience
and knowledge of the so called “baby boomers”, now
entering their retirement phase, coupled with transformational
needs and other organisational challenges, means that effective
Succession Planning and Talent Management is a strategic imperative.
Mentoring for Success™ has proven to be an invaluable tool
to use as a “filter” for middle management and to assess
the capabilities and capacity of the next generation of potential
leaders.
|
Fast-Tracking Graduate
Development
|
In a country and continent alive
with potential, the ability to fast track Graduate Development
is a key competitive advantage and Mentoring for Success™ has
been successfully used to fast track graduates into both professionals
and business managers, by aligning their theoretical knowledge
and youthful confidence, with practical business skills and appropriate
organisational behaviours and values.
|
Performance and Productivity
Improvement
|
The net effects of immigration,
retirement and transformation, are producing a skills shortage
of alarming proportions. When coupled with a boom economy, a global “war
for talent” has been created and Mentoring for Success™ has
been an instrumental intervention for many organisations, which
have recognised the need to ensure sustainability through the urgent
and effective transfer and development of Scarce and Critical Skills
|
Key Competency Development
and Communication
|
A consistent benefit that many
organisations experience through Mentoring for Success™ is
the ability to develop key Competencies, which have not been successfully
mobilised through traditional HR practices of classroom training
and development. An additional long term benefit is the ability
to effectively Communicate and demonstrate the relevance and application
of key Competencies, through a structured Mentoring intervention
|
Empowerment and Transformation
|
Mentoring for Success™ has
been a cornerstone of producing and supporting effective Empowerment
and Transformation in many client organisations, from the level
of waiters in the hospitality industry to specialist engineering
and technical managers in the mining and construction sectors.
