08/2009 The Benefits of Mentoring

Mentoring Mentoring has evolved in the workplace to be less about bosses grooming their handpicked successors to being more about employees’ overall career growth. With the steep learning curve in most technical organizations, leveraging the knowledge and experience of veteran staffers is especially helpful in speeding along the development of newcomers. Mentoring is a process of building a relationship and a working environment that enhances the development of skills and performance of one or both parties. Mentoring must be supported and reinforced by the management system and the organizational culture.

Quick Stats / Facts Statistics show the positive influence of mentoring on protégés, mentors and organizations. These statistics are grouped into four categories that affect every organization or individual. Promotion: 75 per cent of executives point to mentoring as playing a key role in their careers; and 44 per cent of CEOs list mentoring programs as one of the three most effective strategies to enhance women’s advancement into senior management (Source: American Society of Training & Development – ASTD). Productivity: Managerial productivity increased by 88 per cent when mentoring was involved, versus only a 24 per cent increase with training alone; 71 per cent of Fortune 500 companies use mentoring to assure learning occurs in their organizations (Source: ASTD).

Development: More than 60 per cent of college and graduate students listed mentoring as a criterion for selecting an employer after graduation (Source: MMHA); 76 per cent of Fortune’s top 25 companies offer mentoring programs (Source: Fortune Magazine); 96 per cent of executives say mentoring is an important development tool (Source: Account Temps). Retention: 77 per cent of companies report that mentoring programs were effective in increasing employee retention; 35 per cent of employees who do not receive regular mentoring look for another job within 12 months (Source: ASTD). According to the Meta Group, when mentoring leverages the organization’s skills and productivity, employee morale can increase by 25 per cent. Quick Stats / Facts

Needs Analysis An effective needs analysis will determine critical positions within the organization, the forms of knowledge and skills that must be transferred from mentors to mentees that will ensure the ongoing success of the organization, and may help to identify the individuals that are best suited for participation in the program. The Needs Analysis will also comprise a Task Analysis to determine how the job should be performed and the things that a skilled employee must know and be able to do. A Person Analysis is also required to determine how employees currently perform the job compared to how they should perform and how best to train them.

Identify appropriate senior staff members that combine the identified KSAOs and match them with high potential junior employees while finding a match between the career interests of individual workers and the needs of business. Recruit employees that are qualified, have met all training goals and expectations, and are fully prepared to succeed in the positions, thus ensuring the on-going success of your organization. Recruiting for the Program

Managers will need to trust and empower employees, as the managers of today and tomorrow may have responsibility for business results without having direct control over the people who must achieve those results. Leaders within the company must learn to shift from a control and command style to one of facilitating and mentoring. Shifting Management Styles

Data Tracking To ensure the success of the program, the company should secure appropriate data which identifies: Number of high potential employees Percentage of high potential employees to total workforce Number of employees upgraded and downgraded since their last performance review Average age and years of service Number of key positions without an heir apparent

To ensure the ongoing success of the program, the HR department should perform the following actions throughout the mentoring initiative: Utilize the appropriate data to create effective solutions in mentoring. Employ surveys to determine employee expectations and attitudes Develop a long range plan that emphasizes employee development needs Process and Develop Data

Prior to the start of the initiative, all relevant parties should be provided with orientation, and a clear understanding of the goals and vision of the program. The company should ensure that training programs have been established, with properly identified informational requirements, mentors and leadership initiatives. Implementation

The HR department should be responsible for managing the processes undertaken to ensure consistency and quality. Though the content of individual mentoring sessions should always be confidential, the mentoring process itself needs to be managed to ensure that the protégés and the mentors are following the appropriate process and leveraging best practices. Process Management

Those being mentored should receive encouragement and support from their immediate managers. Mentoring should be conducted in the context of other developmental efforts such as competency development, assessments, mentoring and leadership workshops. Organizational Support

Allow Each Mentoring Relationship to Follow its Own Path A major difference between mentoring and training is that mentoring allows the individual to determine what works best for him/her at a very personal level. Mentors need wide latitude to work with “the whole person” and help each protégé be more effective as a person as well as to be more effective as a business leader.

Final Thought When all is said and done, there can be little doubt that mentoring is not only good for the professions but also benefits mentors, protégés and the organization.
