A survey-based study of the value of business mentoring

Enterprise Nation, with partners, wanted to establish the value of business mentoring for small-firm performance to mark National Mentoring Day. PolicyDepartment scoped and designed the research and ran a literature review, designed the survey and workshop questions, ran two workshops, wrote up case studies and the final report, and provided briefing support for the launch. Delivered as the published report 'Mentoring Matters', the work established the demand for, and value of, mentoring in supporting founders' confidence and business progression.
