Effortless employee mentoring with real outcomes

We understand time is precious. Here's the reality: **The commitment:** - 1 hour per week for mentoring sessions - 1-hour initial training (one-time) - Optional monthly community calls **The return:** - Training alone: 24% productivity improvement - Training + mentoring: 88% productivity improvement (ATD) - Standard corporate VTO is 20 hours/year — this fits easily within that Many partners find mentors protect this time fiercely because it's the most meaningful hour of their week.

Internal and external mentorship serve different purposes: **Internal mentorship:** - Transfers company-specific knowledge - Navigates organizational politics - Limited by confidentiality concerns - Same cultural context **TEEI's cross-cultural mentorship:** - Develops adaptive leadership in unfamiliar contexts - Creates psychological safety for honest coaching practice - Builds empathy, communication, cultural intelligence - Skills transfer to any business situation Research shows external mentors provide "a mirror, a chance to step back and make progress that can be tough with someone mired within the politics and organizational dynamics internally." Most partners run both programs — they're complementary, not competing.

We help you measure impact at every level: **Level 1: Reaction** - Mentor satisfaction scores - Session completion rates - NPS surveys **Level 2: Learning** - Pre/post skills assessment - 360-degree feedback integration - Self-reported competency gains **Level 3: Behavior** - Manager feedback on participant performance - Observable leadership behaviors - Peer recognition data **Level 4: Results** - Retention rates (participants vs. control group) - Engagement scores - Promotion rates across 24 months **Level 5: ROI** - Turnover cost savings calculation - Productivity improvement estimates We provide quarterly reports with all this data, plus comparison benchmarks.

Internal mentorship tools are built to manage internal programmes. TEEI serves a different role: we run a structured external mentoring programme where your employees mentor Ukrainian professionals. That means your team does not need a new vendor setup to participate. If you already use internal mentoring tools, keep using them there. **TEEI provides for this programme:** - Mentor training - Matching - Session structure - Coordination and support - Reporting Many partners use both: their existing system for internal development programmes, and TEEI for a managed external mentoring partnership.

We've designed safety into every aspect of the program: **Structural safeguards:** - Structured session formats with guides - Regular check-ins from program coordinators - Clear escalation procedures - Scheduled video calls and TEEI-managed coordination **Mentor preparation:** - Required cultural sensitivity training - Mentorship best practices orientation - Ongoing support resources - Community of practice access **Matching process:** - Professional background verification - Skills and interest alignment - Mutual opt-in confirmation - 2-week adjustment window **Track record:** - Tent Partnership for Refugees operates similar programs with dozens of Fortune 500 companies - This model is proven at scale - We carry appropriate insurance coverage Your employees simply show up prepared to mentor - we handle coordination and support.

We support programs from 10 to 500+ mentors: **Pilot (10-25 mentors)** - Standard matching and onboarding - Monthly progress updates - Dedicated program coordinator **Department (25-100 mentors)** - Batch enrollment and training sessions - Quarterly business reviews - Centralised reporting views - Manager toolkit for internal advocacy **Enterprise (100+ mentors)** - Dedicated partnership manager - Multi-team rollout support - Training tailored to your teams - Executive stakeholder briefings - Shared success measures Most partners start with a first cohort, prove the model, then expand. Access remains Open at $0, and optional sponsorship is separate and supports TEEI operations.

Corporate mentoring programs pair experienced employees (mentors) with others who can benefit from their guidance (mentees). The goal is developing skills, transferring knowledge, and building engagement. **Common types:** - Internal mentoring (employee-to-employee) - Reverse mentoring (junior-to-senior) - External mentoring (employee-to-community) - Peer mentoring (same-level support) **Benefits:** - 72% retention rate for participants vs. 49% without (Wharton) - 5× higher promotion rates (Sun Microsystems) - 2× engagement rates (Gallup) TEEI specializes in external mentoring — connecting your employees with Ukrainian refugee professionals. This creates unique development experiences while generating social impact.

Time commitments vary by program type: **TEEI Standard Program:** - 1 hour/week mentoring session - 1-hour initial training (one-time) - 6-month commitment - Total: ~26 hours across 6 months **Industry benchmarks:** - Average corporate mentoring: 1-2 hours/week - Skills-based volunteering: 1-2 hours/week - Standard corporate VTO: 20 hours/year Our program fits comfortably within typical volunteer time-off policies and requires less time than most leadership development workshops — with significantly better outcomes.
