Mentoring Services

Personal professional development from the experts

We can help you to develop your skills and competence to solve the safety and health challenges you and your organisation face through mentoring.

Mentoring is an effective means of professional development for both individuals and small teams. It is ideal development methodology for busy managers and directors.

Each of the Hastam Health and Safety mentors has many years of experience in a wide range of safety and health competences and tasks. They are leaders in their field and authors of key publications that have advanced the field or are standard textbooks. They have long experience of teaching, training, supervising and examining at the leading universities in the UK, across Europe and beyond, and providing expert advice for local and global organisations.

We can support you to start working you on completely new tasks and build up your performance orr we can help you extend your existing skills and take them to a higher level. You decide what your aim is and how long the mentoring should last. In this way you can combine the vital professional development that keeps your skills up to date with support in solving the challenges facing your business.

How do we do it?

  1. You choose the area or areas in which you are seeking development and support. A list of the topics we are competent to mentor in is given later. If what you are looking for is not on the list, please contact us to see if we could still help you.
  2. Contact us by phone or e-mail and we will arrange an initial free discussion with a potential mentor to specify the competence you are looking for, your current level in it and the timescale for the mentoring.
  3. If you wish to proceed with your mentor we will meet you to make a detailed plan for the mentoring process; what it will cover; how you will keep in contact (e-mail, telephone, personal visit); how he will monitor progress and give you feedback; over what period the mentoring will take place and when and how it will be evaluated. Based on this plan your learning experience can begin.
  4. We will show you how to carry out the tasks; we comment critically, but constructively, on your attempts to carry them out; we give you feedback, so that you gain insight into your own performance and its strengths and weaknesses; we provide support until you feel competent to perform on your own at the level you are aiming for.
