Mentors are trusted expert advisors who are more experienced and skilled and can guide their protege to achieve and perhaps one day surpass the skill of their mentor.

While mentoring programs have many benefits in the development of new employees, the experience of being a mentor is rewarding and helps develop their leadership skills.
From an organizational perspective, having a mentor program sends the message "We value our employees and are willing to invest them." Investment in employees can foster loyalty, ultimately resulting in a happier and more productive workplace with lower turnover. Other positive effects include positive PR, and being highly regarding in your community will set you apart from your competition and allow you to recruit top talent.

There are a number of things to consider before establishing a mentoring program; How will the program be managed? What is the best process for matching employees with their mentors? Should all employees have a mentor, or should it be voluntary? What is the difference between coaching and mentoring? These are just a few of the questions we can help you answer.
