What we do

Working together with you

Our mentoring for leaders is delivered through a distinct approach: confidential, high-touch and tailored to each individual. We operate independently, with no agenda beyond the leader themselves. This creates a uniquely open and trusted space for reflection, challenge and growth.

Meet the Mentors

The team have been working on both 1:1 and team mentoring for the last 10 months. We found the individual retreats very helpful with thoughtful, quality interventions and appropriate challenges from our mentors. As the leader of the team, I have found the time with my mentor very valuable in helping me to set out a clear agenda, actions and priorities for both myself and the leadership team.

Howard Watson,

Chief Technology & Information Officer, BT Group

My mentor has been priceless – helping me navigate several complex issues with clarity and confidence. I’ve learned a great deal – not only through hearing about real-world business experience, but by testing and refining my own thinking in a space that is safe, insightful and challenging in all the right ways. Above all, it has been an energising experience – one that has sharpened my thinking and approach.

Margherita Della Valle,

CEO, Vodafone plc

I have a fantastic relationship with my mentor that has been built over an extended period, but which was established quickly at our initial retreat. The intensity and exploration of the retreat was a supercharged way of getting to know and trust each other from the start. My mentor has helped me adjust to new roles and new environments, navigate challenging stakeholder relations and stay focused on what is important to me. She regularly reminds me how to use my strengths and gives me perspective. I know I wouldn’t have had the success I’ve had without her help.

Clare Gilmartin,

CEO

My experience has been exceptional. The ability to bounce around ideas, solicit advice, and test out thinking with someone who has a different set of experiences and no vested interest, is liberating. I believe I am both a better leader as well as a more well-rounded person as a result.

Global Client Lead,

WPP plc

My mentoring experience stands out as the most impactful executive development I have ever encountered. I have matured and turned a corner in understanding myself and how to be successful in global organisations.

The Original Mentor

Mentoring has its roots in one of the oldest leadership stories. In Homer’s Odyssey, Mentor was entrusted with guiding the young Telemachus while Odysseus was away — not by directing him, but by offering judgement, perspective and wisdom born of experience. This enduring idea of counsel, grounded in trust rather than instruction, remains the essence of mentoring today.

That same tradition sits at the heart of Global Mentors Group today. 

We exist to provide leaders with access to seasoned peers who have walked the path before them, offering the clarity, judgement and discretion required to lead at the highest level.
