Programme Outline

Half-Day Mentoring Skills Workshop Outline

First Half
The Mentor Role, Core Frameworks & Conversation Skills

Mentors define the distinct role of a mentor and how it differs from coaching, managing and advising. They apply a proven mentoring framework to structure productive conversations, practise active listening and powerful questioning, and explore how to share experience effectively without becoming directive.

Second Half
Goal Setting, Stretch & Personal Action Planning

Mentors practise helping mentees clarify goals and maintain momentum, build confidence in providing challenge and stretch without damaging rapport, and leave with a personal mentoring action plan — with clear commitments for their very next mentoring conversation.
