Why acumen7 mentoring matters
acumen7 also act as mentors to many of those who approach us. The challenge for many organisations is to garner the expertise they require, whilst retaining the ownership and control of their business or project. They require business mentors who can provide challenge, and support from a position of experience and knowledge, who can operate at the highest level in the organisation and whose interests are entirely aligned with theirs.
Our mentoring approach extends individuals at a step change in their career to develop and support their leadership potential. We have promoted this approach further through our Associate Member scheme.
