Retaining talented employees is a must for organisations. Mentoring is a great strategy for retaining your talent. Mentoring can help in many ways by rekindling enthusiasm, energising and revitalising disillusioned managers, opening up new career opportunities, enabling senior leadership to understand and drive change and empower individuals that might otherwise leave the organisation.
