About the Beaumont People Mentoring Program

​

Beaumont Consulting Pty Ltd, ABN: 60 097 409 026, (we, us, our or Beaumont People) is committed to investing in aspiring leaders across the many sectors we support. Beaumont People LEAD Mentoring and Professional Development Program has been established to enable leaders to enhance and build leadership awareness, capability and to help foster relationships across the various sectors.

The mentoring relationship is a development experience that is focused to support the mentee, but it is a relationship that often has personal and professional benefits for both mentor and mentee. The program is designed to aid the mentee in providing personal insights and intellectual challenge through their interactions with their mentor.

The program is not designed to provide legal, financial, or psychological counselling. The interactions do not constitute formal advice and no guarantees or representations can be made as to the impact on performance of the individual or organisation participating.

If at any point during the mentoring relationship either party feels that formal advice is needed, such as if there is concern around psychological or mental health, or for financial or legal matters, then it is strongly advised that you consult a qualified professional.

Beaumont People commits to matching appropriately mentors and mentee into the mentoring relationship. If the match is not suitable or cannot continue for any reason within the duration of the program, Beaumont People will re-match with a suitable person within one month.

In addition to the matching and guidance of the mentoring relationship, participants will be provided with bespoke resources, profiling tools, and thought leadership to aid successful program outcomes.
