Mentoring is recognised as having a huge impact on staff development when done well in organisations. However, too often, mentors are not equipped with the skills to fully utilise their position in helping their mentee move forward. Perhaps the mentor does not engage wholly in the mentees concerns, or rushes in with solutions with a one-size fits all mentality.
Whatever the problem, the person who should be truly benefiting from the mentoring is all to often frustrated by the process.The Smart Schools Certificate in Mentoring is an ideal solution for your organisation needs, training potential mentors in the key skills required to help develop a colleague. |
