MENTORING
LeaderGen has been selected by the Northwest Regional Development Agency (NWDA) to deliver one-to-one mentoring in an exciting Mentoring Programme in Greater Manchester and Merseyside, as part of a wider network across the Northwest. The Mentoring Programme gives leaders and senior managers a priceless opportunity to work with a dedicated mentor who will develop their leadership and management potential to help them grow their business.
Mentoring gives leaders and senior managers the chance to reflect on their own personal and business performance. It provides the motivation to build on business success by nurturing strategies that will enable leaders and senior managers to become more innovative and entrepreneurial and therefore enable their business to become more competitive.
LeaderGen specialises in the latest cutting edge leadership and management training to inspire business leaders to innovate new products and services to gain commercial advantage over their competitors and grow their profits.
Our results-orientated service is designed for ambitious leaders and managers of micro and small enterprises who wish to achieve an increase in sales turnover of at least £100,000 over the next five years, through learning the secrets of the trade from established entrepreneurs and business people who know what works and doesn’t work in creating commercial success. Additionally we have a proven track record in nurturing BME and women entrepreneurs.
LeaderGen offers access to a wide range of quality assured mentors who will work to a quality framework accredited by the International Standards for Mentoring Programmes in Employment (ISPME).
We will provide clients with a shortlist of suitable mentors to choose from. Mentors will be carefully selected based on their personality, skills and experience.
LeaderGen’s inspirational mentors are experienced business leaders who have grown highly profitable and sustainable businesses. They understand the challenges you face, and are committed to giving you the best real world practical support, advice and techniques on a 1-1 basis to:-
- improve your commercial acumen and business know-how to improve business performance and growth
- improve your confidence and decision making
- improve your leadership and management skills
- help you become more solutions focussed and action orientated
- - and help you avoid costly mistakes.
The Mentoring Programme will enable clients to set the goals and both the client and mentor to set the objectives of their relationship. Clients dictate the tone and the pace. Typically a relationship will last between 6-12 months and take place in an informal setting away from the workplace.
The Mentoring Programme is for leaders and senior managers of small business who:
- have been trading for a minimum of 1 year;
- have less than £2m turnover per year;
- have a leadership/management role in the company;
- are looking to improve their leadership skills;
- are looking to grow their business;
- are not currently receiving Agency funded LEAD, High Growth Coaching or Business Start Up Support;
- are not located in Local Economic Growth Initiative (LEGI) funded areas or in receipt of LEGI funded support.
- are not in receipt of Working Neighbourhood Fund (WNF) initiative support or funded support.
Mentors are provided at no cost to the business. Clients just need to commit a couple of hours each month to meet their mentor.
