At Elevate, we are passionate about nurturing our teams by ensuring that they have all the tools, skills and resources they need to thrive in the workplace.
We have an incredible team of people within the business and through collaboration, we can work together to drive progression and create opportunities.
What is Elevation?
Elevation is Elevate’s internal mentoring programme! Those who choose to take part as a mentee will be paired with a mentor from the senior leadership team. Over a 9-month period, the mentor will guide their mentee, building their confidence and supporting them on their personal development plan.
Hear from last year’s mentors and mentees
What is expected from this year’s programme?
- Mentors will be made up of volunteers from the senior leadership team. Each mentor will offer a shortlist of specialisms
- Mentees will be matched via a working session. To reduce bias in the selection process, we will pair topics mentees are seeking to develop with the specialisms mentors provide
- Once paired there will be a kick-off session with all mentors and mentees, where pairings will be announced and resources to support the programme will be shared. All expectations from the mentees and mentors will be made clear
- Mentees will share their main goals from the programme with their mentors so that they can tailor the sessions accordingly. With that said, it will be the responsibility of the mentee to guide the agenda
- Mentors and mentees are advised to meet at least once every six weeks throughout the nine month programme
- Guidelines, session topics and supporting material will be shared for those who are less clear on the developmental areas they wish to focus on
- There will be a mid-way feedback session for mentors and mentees. This will give everyone an opportunity to highlight any issues and ensure targets are being met so that this can be corrected for the second half of the programme
