Business and Professional Mentoring
_j.jpg)
Mentoring is a powerful method of leadership and personal development, but you must work with a mentor who constantly challenges you to grow. Aspiration demands growth, and growth demands change. That is what I provide as a mentor to clients internationally on Zoom.
An introductory 30-minute session is free of charge, and if you decide to proceed with ongoing sessions, the fee is NZ$250+GST for 60 minutes, which may be extended by 20 minutes without any further charge. Informal or spontaneous calls and e-mails will likewise incur no charge.
The coaching of leadership skills is part of the package. I use Calendly to make finding a time that suits you easier. To see when I'm available and find a time that works for you, click here:
