Since 2012 Prositions has been at the forefront of the growing movement to help automate and facilitate mentoring in the workplace. In honor of International Mentoring Day (January 17, 2017) they are giving back to the mentoring community by offering their new How to Build a Mentoring Program Guide complimentary to the public and announcing the release of the new MentorString mobile application.

“Mentoring spans more than just a month, but to honor this occasion we’re happy to offer our comprehensive mentoring guide to help organizations create or improve their mentoring programs,” stated Frank Russell, CEO of Prositions, Inc. “A mentoring program is one of the most effective and valuable tools an organization can implement to increase employee engagement and improve employee performance on the job.”

However, building a mentoring program that works can be challenging. Prositions’ new workbook, How to Build a Mentoring Program that Works, will help human resource professionals understand the critical components of a successful mentoring program and step through the process of creating and implementing it in their organization. The workbook starts by helping users identify clear goals and create buy-in from senior leadership and support from stakeholders. Then users work through the design of their mentoring program to fit with their organization’s needs and culture, while identifying how to prepare mentors and mentees for their new roles. Additional steps include planning the launch and implementation process and determining how to measure the impact and success of the program.

Along with this free guide, Prositions is also releasing its new MentorString mobile application. It is built for use with the cloud-based version of the software to access notifications, development/action plans, and profiles from anywhere and at any time. The MentorString software helps organizations facilitate and automate a mentoring program, connect and develop employees in an organization of any size, and deliver individual action/development plans to accelerate learning.  

“The MentorString app has been in development for almost a year, and the entire team is excited to finally see it in the app store,” said Quinten Powell, Senior Product Developer at Prositions, Inc. “We’ll continue to create and add new features as we get feedback from our customer base. The app is yet another convenient way users can access all the valuable tools, connections, and resources available in MentorString.”

Prositions, a leading training content producer and distributor, announced today the release of the LEAD NOW! Mini-Video Library, featuring 22 mini-video modules. This new release is based on the best-selling books by leadership experts and authors John Parker Stewart and Daniel Stewart. The LEAD NOW! Mini-Video Library incorporates a brand new instructional design that allows time-starved training professionals and learners to rapidly access content in convenient formats and delivery methods. The program also includes downloadable digital training materials, like development plans, leader’s guides, experiential exercises, and participant worksheets.

“We are excited that our leadership program is now available in this new format – it just makes sense for how people learn today,” said John Parker Stewart, Founder and CEO at Stewart Leadership. “This new mini-video library, in conjunction with the other LEAD NOW! materials, creates one of the most comprehensive and flexible leadership development programs available in the market.”

Created with the time-starved learner in mind, each module is only 6 to 8 minutes in length and can be delivered in almost any way a learner prefers. Segments can be shown to groups in classroom training, used as eLearning courses for self-paced development, or hosted as a performance support tool to be accessed at the exact moment a user wants a quick tutorial or refresher. This library also contains hundreds of effective tips and tools organized into 21 leadership dimensions/competencies.

“YouTube and Google have changed the way employees learn on and off the job,” explained Frank Russell, CEO at Prositions, Inc. “LEAD NOW! was a perfect fit for our new approach to learning because John and Daniel designed the content in short digestible chunks for busy leaders and training professionals.” Russell continued, “We’ve designed it so today’s learners can even access this content by smartphone or audio podcast while exercising or driving. There’s nothing quite like it in the marketplace!”  

The LEAD NOW! Leadership Development Model is based on 50 years of collective management and leadership coaching experience with Fortune 500 companies, government agencies, and other small to medium organizations. The simple, but comprehensive, training program is built on research from over 8,000 surveys collected from executives, managers, supervisors, and employees who were asked about their perceptions of the most important and critical behaviors of an ideal leader. The LEAD NOW! Mini-Video Library and flexible delivery model are proving to be a winning combination for leadership development because it fits the needs of today’s fast-paced organizations and learners.
