CHAMBER TRAINING ACADEMY
Peer Mentoring Taster Session
Imagine having access to a network of business leaders you can rely on for honest advice, support, and fresh ideas. Better yet, imagine offering that same support to others.
Our Peer Mentoring programme has been running successfully for 13 years. Each group is made up of business owners from a variety of industry sectors and skills, brought together in a confidential and professionally facilitated environment.
Come along to this taster session to find out more about the programme and how you can join an upcoming group!
What will Peer Mentoring give you?
- Time to work on (rather than in) your business
- The opportunity to explore challenges in a confidential environment
- A group of like-minded business owners who can become your trusted ‘go-to’s’
- A unique blend of challenge and support from your group
- Suggestions for developing or niching down your business offer
- Explore practical solutions to common business problems
- Increase resilience to manage future challenges
What is Peer Mentoring? The Peer Mentoring Groups consist of 8-12 business owners from different business areas who are willing to learn from and support each other by sharing their expertise and varied skill sets in a confidential environment. All the programmes have at their core the concept of Action Learning – this is ‘learning by doing’, focusing on group members’ real business challenges and identifying practical actions they can take to solve them. An experienced facilitator guides the group and holds members accountable.
This is what a previous group member said about the programme:
"I first decided to give Peer Mentoring a go when I was a sole trader looking to expand my business. The group gave me a safe place to air my worries and a monthly 'board of directors' to hold me accountable to achieving my business goals bit by bit. Even years later I have strong relationships with my fellow peers that I still use today. The Chamber's programme helped me hold on to my business and change it so it suited me better. In fact, I don't think I'd even be in business without signing up to Peer Mentoring. It has to be one of the best business decisions I have ever made."
