OVERVIEW


The Award in Introduction to Mentoring Skills aims to equip team leaders and aspiring first time managers with the skills and knowledge to understand and undertake effective mentoring to aid their own personal development. This will enable them to move into supervisory and management roles later with greater ease.

There are two mandatory units in the Award. ‘Understanding Mentoring’ helps learners to develop an understanding of the role and nature of mentoring, while ‘Developing Mentoring Skills’ enables learners to undertake mentoring to reflect on their performance and identify areas for improvement.

At Investors in Learning we recognise that every person and situation is different and therefore we have a flexible approach to delivering the programme. This can be delivered through workshops, on-line study, personalised and individual coaching and a mix of all of these methods depending on the situation.

Our programmes combine innovative design with a strong focus on workplace performance, we believe this delivers well-rounded individuals with a proven ability to perform to the required standards.

The workshops are highly participative, using facilitated discussion, presentations, case studies and group work. The workshops promote reflective review, and encourage delegates to find opportunities to apply the learning in the workplace. Delegates are supported with an action learning based coaching session and will complete work-based learning assignments, which are assessed and verified by Institute for Leadership and Management in order to achieve their accreditation.

Institute for Leadership and Management
Institute for Leadership and Management is a City & Guilds Group business, and is an internationally recognised specialist in Leadership and Management qualifications and research.

  • In a recent survey, 93% of Employers saw a tangible increase in performance after an Institute for Leadership and Management qualification.
  • All Institute for Leadership and Management qualifications are awarded by The City & Guilds of London Institute, which was founded in 1878

Getting the right mix of inspirational leadership and effective management skills and practices can have a significant impact on organisational performance in terms of profit, sales, growth and survival.

Knowing-Doing-Being framework
The Institute for Leadership and Management Knowing, Doing, Being framework takes into account all aspects of good leadership and management and how it works in practice.

It recognises the need for rounded development – technical knowledge, capability and personal awareness.

  • Knowing is the body of skills and technical knowledge you need to manage effectively – fundamental know-how around finance, marketing and planning.
  • Doing is putting that knowledge into practice. For example being good at leading teams or managing projects – not just knowing the theory.
  • Being is about self-awareness, values and integrity. Great leaders understand the impact they have on others, are confident, have a strong framework of values. They have the emotional intelligence to engage others and engender trust.



How we use the Knowing, Doing, Being framework
All Investors in Learning programmes bring together all three elements of the framework – developing the whole person by combining:

  • Insight into personal qualities
  • Formal structured learning
  • Transfer of knowledge into action at the workplace
