We are now into the final months of 2024 and for many of us, this signals the budget round and thinking about our people strategy.
It will shortly be 2025 and many have a planning horizon up to 2030, anticipating what their people needs might be.
Free lunchtime Mentor Continuous Professional Development (CPD) Webinars. Following the success of our CPD webinars for mentors, we have decided to go back to some of the mentoring basics in the run up to Christmas to enable new mentors to get up to speed with some of the learning our existing mentoring community enjoys.
Fast-track access to EMCC Senior Practitioner accreditation via a Level 7 Postgraduate Certificate (PGC) in Coaching and Mentoring for Leadership in Organisations. This course, accredited by Leeds Beckett University, provides convenient virtual learning across three modules starting in April 2025. It is suitable for internal and external coaches and mentors, or those looking to develop their leadership skills.
There should be a consensus that, over time, D&I management becomes unnecessary because diversity and inclusion have become a natural culture. There would be no diversity washing; everyone has developed empathy for difference, and those who repeatedly feel like a minority in everyday social life no longer feel that way in the workplace.
The multiple crises and chronic work overload have made “well-being” a top issue generally and especially in non-profit organisations. It is natural for NGOs to want to provide workplaces that promote rather than hinder well-being, but it is not always easy to do so.
During June 2024, leading up to the Coach Mentoring Ltd 20th Anniversary on the 29th June 2024, our wonderful team will be presenting a series of webinar seminars where we talk about our passions and celebrate our team energy, love of learning, collaboration and desire to put a dent in the universe! I am so grateful to these amazing consultants and their infectious generosity in providing such a diverse range of high quality learning to everyone as part of our 20th Anniversary celebrations!
Spring is here and so is our next tranche of 30-minute mentor CPD sessions. Come along and enjoy your lunch to the sound of mentor development. You might find your authentic mentoring self, or discover your mentee’s purpose. Maybe Liu Liu‘s discussion on bridging cultures will unlock your mentee’s potential. Whatever sparks joy for you, you’re sure to find something tasty!
As I stepped outside into the snowy scenes this month and saw the snow covering the fields and paths, the icy streams and rivers, I was in awe of those who choose to dash into the icy waters as a form of pleasure, those who roll in the snow to rush back into their saunas, those who set off early to make the first tracks in the snow. All with a view to invigorating their body and mind, to feeling re-energised and ready for anything the day might bring. Whilst I might not choose to engage in all of these activities, I do resonate with the need to discover and re-discover our individual and team energies.
