Masterful Mentoring
Make Development Your Business: Develop Employees Everyday While Getting Results
A one-day workshop for supervisors, managers and leaders
Imagine your managers equipped with know-how to generate impressive gains in workforce capabilities, tucking developmental practices into their management routines without adding more work to their load. Aligning your managers’ developmental actions with department goals, results in both increased employee skills and greater performance results.
This hands-on workshop cuts to the heart of what it takes for managers to develop employees so they can take on more complex and bigger assignments, while requiring less supervision. Your managers will no longer need to choose between driving for performance OR developing employees. Managers will learn the magic of applying three specific Exceptional Development Practices using case studies, small group discussion, peer coaching, and tools. They will leave the workshop with a plan to immediately apply this manager-driven, performance-centered development with their employees.

Masterful Mentoring

Elevate the impact of your mentoring program to become one of the top drivers of development in your company. Those who are the most masterful consistently achieve remarkable results with their mentees, even through the type of difficulties that cause other mentors to be less than enthusiastic or to simply drop out. These mentors create the right conditions and take deliberate steps, (and perceptively avoid missteps) which provides a sustained healthy, developmental mentorship that spurs growth both for their mentees and themselves.
