Mentoring is a very important part of the Growing Routes Programme and provides a unique chance for two people to work closely together to bring about learning and development. By the nature of the process it offers great opportunities and rewards for both the client and the mentor. Developing an effective mentoring relationship gives the new business access to a well worth source of help and advice provided free of charge by highly skilled individuals.
What Is A Business Mentor?
Why Does a Business Need a Mentor?
Planning, developing and running a new business brings many challenges. Of course, as the entrepreneur, you will bring skills, experience, energy, effort and enthusiasm. However, evidence shows that the businesses that are more likely to succeed are those that seek support and guidance from others. Mentoring offers the entrepreneur a unique opportunity to work with an experienced, knowledgeable and skilled person whose key objective is to support the success of the business.
Mentoring also fosters independence by promoting self reliance and self confidence with the ultimate goal of helping a client to the point where they no longer need mentor support.
