1 Day Art of Mentoring - Developing People & Teams for High Performance
 
Introduction
 
Why do organizations implement formal mentoring programs?

Organizations recognize that workforce demographics have changed dramatically in recent years, as women and members of different minority groups have joined the workforce in greater numbers. In addition, technology has automated traditional employee functions and continues to affect on-the-job performance, altering the way people see themselves within the corporate structure. With these changes, organizations are finding it difficult to recruit and retain qualified personnel. On the plus side, organizations find today's employees exhibit a more flexible approach to work. On the minus side, employees may feel less loyalty to the organizations for which they work. Organizations now look to mentoring to implement a strategic game plan that includes:
 
  • Recruitment
  • Retention
  • Professional development
  • Development of a multicultural workforce
 
The manager-employee relationship focuses on achieving the objectives of the department and the company. A mentor-mentee relationship focuses on developing the mentee professionally and personally. The roles of manager and mentor are fundamentally different. That's why structured mentoring programs never pair mentors with their direct reports. True mentoring is more than just answering occasional questions or providing ad hoc help. It is about an ongoing relationship of learning, dialogue, and challenge. "Mentoring" is a process that always involves communication and is relationship based upon mutual trust and respect.

Mentoring is to support and encourage people to manage their own learning in order that they may maximise their potential, develop their skills, improve their performance and become the person they want to be; it plays a key role in developing one's career. This workshop aims to provide a pool of knowledge to anyone interested in the topic of mentoring. It will also equip participants with practical tools which will help to master the skills as mentor, or interest as mentee.

Attributes To Search For When Picking Sustainable Digital Printing Professionals

By Marci Nielsen


To be able to have a duty implemented, you will need to contract an excellent contractor. There are plenty of people that guarantee to be specialists and on the contrary give you shabby services. If you want never to tap the services of such individuals, it is essential that you think about a number of factors in figuring out a trained sustainable digital printing expert.

Education and learning requirements for the certain activity you want performed should be met by the pro you want to contract. Be wary of fake qualifications or perhaps diplomas that are wrongly acquired from unacknowledged institutions. The suited expert demands to have obtained their college diploma from acknowledged institution. A permit is a requirement for any licensed professional.

A license is prerequisite for any reliable professional. It is important to choose a skilled professional to verify the standard of services that you expect. With an accredited authorization, you are going to be guaranteed that they have fulfilled the legal demands to start performing in their specified profession. For your crucial safety, it is best never to hire unlicensed experts regardless of their skill-set or pay package deals.

Practical experience is essential for experts. An educated professional gives different ways of tackling a complication. They know exactly what to avoid along with the important things about utilizing a particular approach over another. This is due to the fact that they have currently remained in the profession for a substantial period of time and have learned from past mistakes.

A trusted technician is one that can credit their growth in the trade to the reputation they have obtained over time. Customers in many cases react adversely to substandard services which will make them give poor reviews. Having said that, a qualified that is popular with their client base is likely to get positive responses. Getting a specialist with an outstanding credibility and reputation gives you faith in their abilities to meet your needs.

You can establish if a professional excels at their job by analyzing their resources. A professional with present day tools and gadgets is one who can guarantee customer satisfaction as opposed to the one without. The customer reviews regarding services provided say a lot about the expert's capability to deliver. When the specialist in question is reliable and competent, it reflects positively on the expert's credibility.

The trustworthy guru is network oriented. They will develop proper working associations with other specialists in their field. An excellent professional is really about promoting support designed to keep a client even when it involves linking them with other professionals. Their plan is usually to make a long lasting functioning relationship with the customers by providing quality support services as well as their connections in the professional world.

Unquestionably one of the significant factors to consider of the customer is the costs for solutions. An ethical expert is only going to seek a sum that echoes the products and services presented. In addition, an effective specialist is accommodating in their payment plans. This implies that they will have the capacity to deal with both the financially able and crippled buyers. On top of that, they offer diverse service plans to cater to customers with contrasting economic capabilities.
