Coach or mentor – which do I need?

Coaching and mentoring are often confused with each other and many people use these words interchangeably. In this session we will explore what coaching and mentoring are; we will demonstrate the value of coaching in all walks of life and outline how coaching and mentoring can be complementary supports to individuals and in organisations.

Importantly, you have an opportunity to raise your questions so that you can better understand the role and value of each approach, explore the range of specialisms such as career, team, conflict, wellbeing coaching and mentoring, to make informed decisions about which best suits your needs. The session is designed to help those trying to ‘get their head around all the terms’ and understand how to move forward with their own goals; L&D and HR experts exploring the best mix of supports for their organisations and others, who are curious and interested in learning more.
