Employers need to recognize that high performing employees are a valuable asset to the success of their company before they decide to leave. By introducing a coaching and mentoring program, companies can start to develop these key people as the future leaders.

Coaching: Business coaching is a collaborative, solution-focused, result-oriented and systematic process. It provides positive support, feedback and advice on an individual or group basis to improve work performance in the business setting. Business coaching is also called executive coaching, corporate coaching or leadership coaching.

Mentoring: Mentoring is a professional relationship where an experienced person supports and encourages people to develop specific skills and knowledge that will maximize their business potential and improve their performance. In short, it is the transfer of knowledge, skills and experience. The mentor acts as a guide to find the right direction and develop solutions.
