Here’s how to be a great mentor…

This is what we are talking about today:

2. How to choose a mentor best suited to your needs

3. The benefits of mentoring – especially when starting a new role or managing a difficult stakeholder

4. The importance of setting clear expectations, boundaries and time commitment

5. How it’s healthy to challenge your mentee and for them to challenge the mentor back

About Rebecca:

Hi, I’m Rebecca Allen and I’m an Executive Coach and Personal Brand expert for corporate women, aspiring to senior levels of leadership. I absolutely LOVE coaching and seeing my fabulous clients exceed their own expectations. I’ve worked for 12 years now as a coach and have helped women at companies including Woolworths, ANZ, J.P. Morgan, PwC, Coca-Cola Amatil, Ministry of Defence and Coles. I live for those phone calls from clients, jumping up and down, telling me they’ve got that promotion, negotiated a seismic pay rise or have moved into a role completely aligned with their mission, values and strengths. I’m a working mum of two wonderful children, adore travel and trying my hand at anything creative. I’d love to connect with you!
