Business Mentoring

We have a talented and experienced pool of business mentors to take your business to the next level.

What is business mentoring?

Business mentoring is a relationship between you, an entrepreneur, and one of our professional and experienced mentors who have practical hands on business experience.

They are your guide on your business journey, offering advice, guidance, and support to help you to run and improve your business.

How it helps your business

Your business mentor is a professional and experienced critical friend, advisor, and valuable source of information.

They listen, encourage, reflect, challenge assumptions, and, if required, provide critical feedback on ideas, or plans.

Your mentor provides a range of benefits, including:

Guidance on developing and improving your business

Help with identifying barriers and how to overcome them

Ideas for new products or services, or ways of working

Tips for your business that are gained from practical experience

Access to a network of other business people and potential customers

How does it work?

Your business mentor will stay in regular contact with you through meetings, telephone calls, skype and emails. The nature of the relationship may vary from being casual – e.g. a fortnightly or monthly informal check in, to formal and structured meetings with agendas and objectives.

Some mentoring relationships are exclusively online, while others can involve a mixture of face-to-face and online contact.
