  6. The Importance of Mentoring Women

    The Importance of Mentoring Women

    The research on mentoring is clear. Those who are mentored, out-earn and outperform those who are not. They make higher salaries, get promoted more often, have greater job and career satisfaction and lower rates of burnout. For organisations that invest in mentoring their employees, they benefit from higher productivity and greater loyalty. Mentoring works as a great retention tool. But despite all this, only 76% of people understand the undisputed benefits of having a mentor, and only 37% of people actually have one. But how do you do mentoring well, both as a mentor and in building a mentoring programme in your organisation? Join me for a conversation with Dr. Ruth Gotian, co-author of The Financial Times Guide to Mentoring. This is a public episode.
