Team mentoring

Mentoring a management team that steers the organization:

• For management teams with a common challenge
• Team mentoring is facilitated by one mentor
• We always start with an in-depth analysis of the context and the needs
• The mentor shares their experiences and advice with the management team and facilitates peer learning
• Active follow-up of the implementation
• Like in individual mentoring, we measure the impact of team mentoring at several moments throughout the journey.
