Why this programme?
Being a great mentor is more than just giving advice. It is a different relationship from being a line manager which requires a different set of intentions and a different way of communicating.
What we cover and how?
This module is about being a great mentor; helpful intentions, how to behave, how to listen and ask great questions and provoke change through stories.
- Individuals experiment with different ways of communicating
- Individuals learn to precisely listen and question
- Individuals learn how to create and when to use stories and metaphors
‘The facilitator was great and the content was useful and thought provoking. I picked up some tips and ideas which I have actually used as a mentor, an example being that it is a non-hierarchical relationship and that I have as much to learn and to gain from the experience as the person I am mentoring.’
