Make Your Mentoring Conversations Count

A practical National Mentoring Day session for anyone who wants to make mentoring more meaningful, useful and impactful.

National Mentoring Day invites us to give one person one hour. This session is about making that hour count.

Amanda Jones will introduce the Mentoring Activation Framework, a practical approach grounded in emotional intelligence that helps mentors, mentees and those who support the growth of others create better mentoring conversations.

Built around three Elements – Contracting, Capability and Connection – the framework offers a simple structure for bringing greater clarity, connection and impact to mentoring.

Whether you’re already part of a mentoring relationship, considering becoming a mentor or mentee, or supporting others as a leader, coach or consultant, you’ll leave with a practical way to make those conversations count.

Key Takeaways:

You’ll leave with:
 A simple framework for more effective mentoring conversations
 Greater clarity about what makes mentoring meaningful and useful
 Practical ways to strengthen Contracting, Capability and Connection
 A structure you can use in your next mentoring or development conversation

Why Join Live:
This session is designed to be experienced live. You’ll have the opportunity to reflect on your own mentoring approach, explore the Mentoring Activation Framework in real time, and learn alongside a global community.
With two live sessions scheduled across different time zones, choose the one that works best for you and join the conversation.

Optional: Complete Your Mentoring Activation Profile
Participants can also complete the Mentoring Activation Profile (MAP) before the event. The MAP provides personalised insight into how you currently approach mentoring conversations across Contracting, Capability and Connection, giving you a practical lens through which to explore the framework during the session.
