It also helps to foster a sense of belonging and purpose within the organization, which in turn can help to increase morale and productivity. With this core value in mind, your executive leadership team must be dedicated to building their next generation of leaders. As a learning professional in your organization, it is your guidance that will help facilitate executive leadership on how to best coach or mentor your program participants through formal or informal training. Not only is it important to fully equip successors, it is also vital to equip executives with the ideas, tools and methods they need in order to be successful with their team. Let's explore a few methods executive leaders can use to help guide discussion with their mentees throughout the duration of your program. Remember: individual learners have preferred ways of learning based on their specific preferences and needs. When structuring an initial leadership program, it might be best to incorporate a few different modalities with the understanding that there will be some trial-and-error to find the ones that resonate with your learners and their particular experience. Utilize this meeting guide as a navigational tool to steer your discussions effectively during your meetings. It's designed for literal application too; mentors can complete their designated sections, while mentees fill out their respective areas. Whether you choose to print it or fill it out digitally, ensure that you use this time purposefully.
