TVH will be celebrating National Mentor Month this January. TVH launched a pilot Mentor program at its Olathe location in February 2015. The program began with eighteen Mentors and eighteen Mentees who ventured on a yearlong journey of sharing knowledge and experiences
The goal of mentoring is to provide a framework where relationships can be developed between experienced TVH employees and new or in place employees to enhance personal and professional development within the organization. The main objectives of the mentoring program are: skills enhancement, career development, leadership and management development, organizational development and culture change, and staff retention.
The program is thriving and has grown to include 60 participants at TVH locations in the Americas. Participation is expected to increase in 2016 as awareness and enthusiasm about the program increase.
