Your employees who need guidance the most, are the ones who rarely seek it out.
I’ve had some amazing mentors over the years (some formal and some informal) and I strongly believe mentoring is immensely valuable.
Old-fashioned mentoring may be one of the most effective ways to improve job performance, but many mentorship programs don’t reach new hires who need guidance most, new research by Christopher Stanton suggests.
The “broad-mentoring” tests showed that those who received formal mentoring generated at least 18 percent more revenue during their first two months on the sales floor, compared to those who didn’t receive formal mentoring.
