MENTORING

More recently organizations have developed more formal mentoring relationships. While a number of organizations experimented with mentoring programs over the years, most notably in the 70's and 80's, they were primarily reserved for marginal and average performers as a tool for performance improvement. Due to the tumultuous events of the past decade, there has been an explosion of mentoring efforts in organizations of all sizes and industries. A survey conducted by Human Resource Executive last year found that the number of companies developing mentoring programs doubled, a percentage growth of 17% to 36%.

This renewed interest can be attributed to many factors, such as:

• Concern about employee morale and loyalty resulting from major restructuring and downsizing activities
• Increased sensitivity to the issues of women and minorities
• The need for succession planning
• Recruitment and retention issues
• Major change efforts which propel many organizations today
• The need for more and more skilled leaders

Regardless of the motivation, a growing number of organizations are finding mentoring and the sharing of intellectual capital to be making a profound impact on the individual and the organization.
