Leveraging global mentoring in your business
One of the most effective ways to develop employee confidence, engagement and a sense of belonging in the workplace – is through the art of mentoring. A carefully selected mentor can provide insights and guidance to help individuals unlock their potential and unearth new opportunities for learning and growth. This is elevated to new levels when mentees from one country are paired with mentors from another – it exposes entirely new ways of thinking, tackling challenges and conducting business.
Global mentoring and tapping into the knowledge and experience of others is quick and direct way to accelerate one’s development. It also helps spark meaningful conversations beyond standard workplace interactions and encourages deeper listening. This helps to forge unlikely and diverse connections, and to broaden organisational understanding.
We design, develop and help put into place global mentoring programmes for our clients. We provide structures, strategies and supporting frameworks to help them craft and embrace a mentoring culture. This includes implementing effective mentee/mentor matching processes, skill-development workshops and regular checking-in processes.
Belonging is key to employee engagement. Mentoring improves connection and a sense of belonging – which is key to employee engagement, especially for global and remote businesses.
A mentoring culture thrives on rich dialogue, diverse connections and shared commitment to growth and development. If you’d us to help co-create and implement one into your business, please get in touch. You never know what opportunities and lessons may come out of it.

“I appreciate the camaraderie that has developed as a result of going through this mentoring program together. It is great to have an opportunity to connect with our colleagues in different countries and better understand the challenges that they may be facing. It is also nice to have a period of time that we are focusing on personal development and growth”
