How Can I Develop and Implement a Mentoring & Coaching Guideline for My Organization?

Request for Mentoring & Coaching Guideline Development

Please assist with information on the development and implementation of a Mentoring & Coaching guideline. Any information on Mentoring & Coaching will be appreciated. My organization is seriously looking at introducing this and has tasked me to develop it.

Regards,

Mentoring and coaching are two different things. Mentoring is a holistic approach to carve out a student's life on and off the campus. Coaching is imparting skills and knowledge in a specific branch of a subject. Mentoring is to aid, advise, and guide the students through all walks of life. Coaching is training in a particular field.

Thanks everyone for your valuable input! However, I would appreciate it if someone could answer the following questions as, at this stage, I cannot ask for the help of a professional trainer.

Selecting a Coach or Mentor for Existing Employees

As both roles are different, could the line manager assume these roles? If not, should the person selected be from the same function, or could they be from any function?

Initiating the Process of Selecting Mentors

Do you allow mentees to choose their mentors, or should HR select the mentors on behalf of the mentees? And should you ask the mentors for their willingness?

Objectives Set for Mentees by Mentors

What kind of objectives are set for the mentees by the mentors? Are the goals only regarding development, or does this person help in the achievement of assigned targets as well?

Frequency of Interactions and Monitoring Progress

What is the preferred frequency of interactions? How is the progress monitored? What is the period of mentoring?

Please send some forms if possible.
