Mentoring the Mentor-Coach
Helping you step up and into a mentor-coach role
Mentoring the Mentor-Coach is a 6-week programme of individualised support that equips you with the tools, strategies, and skills to help you develop sound mentoring and coaching practices. You will build your confidence and skills as a mentor-coach so that you positively influence your mentee’s (and your own) development and achievement of goals.
By the end of the programme you will be able to:
- Prompt your mentee to improve their job performance through asking good questions
- Enable your mentee to establish and achieve significant goals for their career advancement
- Support your mentee in successful job navigation and transition
- Help your mentee plan for and manage post-career transitions
- Widen and strengthen your own and your mentee’s capabilities
- Positively influence your mentee’s wellbeing
How does it work?
- Engage in six one-hour weekly meetings over six weeks with me.
- Complete activities and tasks between each meeting and come prepared to talk through these at each meeting.
- Informal contact initiated by yourself or me between the weekly meetings as needed to ensure you are continually supported through the programme (may be via email, messaging, Zoom call).
Programme Focus Areas:
Over the six weeks we explore, and you develop the following best mentor-coach practices:
-
- Being clear about the purposes of your practice as a mentor-coach.
- Your core qualities and skills as a mentor-coach of others.
- Managing the role of mentor-coach and knowing how to support your mentee in identifying their core values, developing their career or post-career roadmap, building resilience and self-leadership.
- Developing essential communication skills: strengths-focused feedback, listening, asking good questions.
- Knowing how to recognise and manage mentoring and coaching challenges to achieve a positive outcome for your mentoring relationships and for your mentee.
- Handling conflict and having the challenging conversations.
If you are serious about being an exceptional mentor and giving back, receiving ongoing mentoring support for yourself is a must.
