How to be a Successful Mentor (half day)

A recent study found that people who have been mentored are 130% more likely to end up in senior leadership roles. 

Becoming a mentor is one of the most valuable and rewarding things you can do as you progress through your career. 

But it doesn’t always come naturally, and sometimes inexperienced mentors can find themselves doing more harm than good. 

In this practical workshop, based not just on my own experience of mentoring but that of luminaries such as Steven Spielberg, Whoopi Goldberg & Russell Brand, I share a 12 step guide on how to be the best mentor you can be, along with advice on one of the toughest of all skills - how to really listen.  

 Topics covered include …
