The Benefits of Mentoring

Description:

As this week is National Apprenticeship Week 2023 here in the UK, I share with you my love for Mentoring and the huge benefits that come from investing in an apprenticeship and / or mentoring scheme for your business.

I believe that by investing in an apprentice and mentor, you can have the certainty that you’re building and developing your own in-house expertise, and the peace of mind that everything is under control as you do that.

I talk about:

• How I discovered the value of mentoring and coaching.

• What mentoring looks like for a small business owner.

• The benefits of mentoring and apprenticeships for small business owners and their teams.

• Emily's success story as a Digital Marketing Apprentice.

• Elle's story as she moves to become Marketing Director and take over the family business.

• How my mentoring programme has become an integral part of my business.

And how you can future-proof your business by investing in the next generation of people or people who need a little bit of support and encouragement in order to blossom and flourish into amazing people and valued members of your team.
