The People Mentor

The People Mentor evolved from the owner’s experiences in the workplace. Having strategically led teams and projects, Nicola wanted to share her experiences and support Managers and Leaders to reach their best state.
Leadership and Managing teams can seem a very lonely place. Mentoring is Nicola’s first passion and knows from her experiences of supporting in the workplace it can make a huge difference from confidence to high performance. Those who have mentoring go further and feel in a better place.

The People Mentor believes in kindness and compassion in the workplace as it creates trust and harmony. Underneath the People Mentor lies a theme of involving employees to get the best outcomes for the business.

The Team Turnaround programme was born from Nicola’s many years of leading change and improving processes and the culture. It is a step-by-step process from identifying issues, to an action plan to the implementation of training, workshops, and mentor. These are all delivered in a bitesize manner as businesses need to be getting the biggest impact in the shortest time.

Support is given across the month through chat messaging, telephone and zoom calls. There is nothing worse than being left on your own when feeling unsure or underconfident.

Often the programme starts with setting expectations, where the business is heading and then evolves to:
• Problem-solving that works,
• Visual management
• Decision-making tools
• Understanding Processes and Identifying waste.

The last package is making difficult conversations easier.

So many conversations get left and it leaves a nasty taste when issues aren’t dealt with. Nicola works through a programme with participants to give them the confidence, tools and methods to make it move from a challenging conversation to a conversation that moves the business forward. Based on over 30 years of experience of having difficult conversations in the workplace.

Nicola studied for a level 7 Diploma in Professional consulting as well as one in Strategic leadership and management, wanting to make sure that The People Mentor was keeping to tried and tested methods, as well as keeping up to date with the latest thinking.
