Why Goal 17 Mentoring?
Engage & Retain The Best Talent
Our programmes are proven to increase retention rates, helping you hold onto your most valuable asset; your people. More than that, we create a structured form of mentoring that ensures the highest levels of progress and engagement.
Increase Diversity & Inclusion
Academic studies have proven that mentoring is the most effective intervention to increase diversity and inclusion within an organisation. Our programmes not only help Mentees achieve, but also bring diversity of thought and understanding to Mentors.
Create Social Mobility & Shift Mindsets
Our flagship EMBED Programme pairs our Mentor Trainees with Charity Beneficiaries to accelerate and deepen learning. At the same time this shifts perspectives and removes unconscious bias; creating the environment for true social mobility.
Demonstrate Social Value to Win Contracts
We are a social enterprise and create real social value, specifically though our EMBED Programme. Alongside the learning benefits, many of our clients use our programmes to demonstrate huge social impact in public and private sector bids.
