Coaching and mentoring
Some people find one-to-one support a valuable method to help them with their own development.
The CIPD website provides introductory guidance. It:
- explains what mentoring is and how it differs from coaching
- introduces some of the ways in which mentoring can be beneficial
- describes the qualities and characteristics required for a productive mentoring approach
