"At La Lorraine we are eager to activate the development of our talent. It all starts with helping colleagues understand the type of career that they aspire to and identify ways that they can realize their ambitions within our company. So we gave a select group of talent the opportunity of being mentored by Senior Executives.
But how to start this all? The first thing that Ambits did was to think together with us.... we focused on 3 requirements:
- Structuring the overall process for the pilot of an internal Mentoring Program
- Aligning all stakeholders
- Ways to learn from this pilot & measure effectiveness"

"Ambits suggested their in-house expert Claire. As from the kick-off we immediately worked constructively with her. She delivered a few workshops to our mentors and then another workshop for our mentees. Her experience as a mentor & training facilitator proved invaluable.
With Claire’s support, we will hold two further check ins with mentors by then. We are looking forward to observing the results within 12 months."

Are you considering working with an internal mentor program? Here’s Claire's 2 cents’ worth:
-
- Secure strong buy in from all stakeholders
- Start with a small group (High Potentials)
- Get the matching right!
- Keep the finger on the pulse of both mentors & mentees
