How MMP Works

1. A good mentor program effects on-boarding so new employees stay longer. Measure how many, and how long employees stay. ie; 12 weeks, 6 months, 1 yr., 2 yrs. When measured you will see how this benefit translates into reduced hiring costs. How much does it cost you to hire an employee? How many did you hire last year for existing positions and for new positions?

2. Training is enhanced with effective mentoring and employee’s learning curves increase so employees are more productive and happier. This is measured by measuring work performance. How do you measure and track the different groups work performance? Do you need a system? You can learn how to measure on line or with a consultant. You can track things like sales, customer service call length and repeats, shipments per day, forms per day, etc.

3. Communication and information flow is expanded so employees are more informed, happier, satisfied and therefore more productive. You can track employee satisfaction with surveys and measure improvements. Some companies measure employee satisfaction once every five years, others more often and some never. Employee satisfaction translates into improved performance and employee retention — both measurable in dollars.

4. Future leaders are identified thereby managing talent asset succession. Tacit knowledge (knowledge that cannot be written down) is transferred from the mature part of the workforce to the future leaders. Leaders control the growth of your company. Mentor programs help them lead more effectively and communicate with the team. Measure the bottom line year over year. Your leaders are responsible for growth. When they are given the tools, and the right trained people, your company grows.

1. No system to implement and manage. Set up systems to match partners as well as guide and track mentor sessions.

2. Mentors often don’t know how to mentor. Train the mentors.

3. Senior management doesn’t support the program. Get buy in and participation from senior management.

4. The company culture doesn’t support mentoring. You can do a culture assessment to see if the company is ready for a mentor program.

5. Results and effectiveness aren’t tracked. Measure and adjust effectiveness of matches and sessions. Rate mentees progress and compare to other mentees in program. Use surveys and one-on–one inquiry sessions to see what participants think about making the program better. Do it over time. Give your program 2 years to evolve and make adjustments every six months and minimum once per year.
