McCarthy Mentoring

Wendy McCarthy established a mentoring practice over 10 years ago when she was asked by the CEO of a global corporation to find mentors for a number of staff who were bright and ambitious but needed some assistance in understanding the "software" of corporate culture at a senior level.

Drawing on her educational background and long professional experience in a broad range of areas she matched the mentees with suitable external mentors.

She has since arranged hundreds of successful mentoring relationships for corporations, not-for-profits and the public sector.

In 2007 she renamed the practice McCarthy Mentoring and has been joined by her daughter Sophie.

McCarthy Mentoring programs aim to assist mentees to:

• Develop skills, knowledge and confidence
• Clarify professional and personal goals
• Develop professional networks
• Grow the culture of mentoring

McCarthy Mentoring provides experienced and wise mentors who are carefully selected from Wendy's extensive local and global networks.

McCarthy Mentoring manages the relationships and liaises with mentors, mentees and the Chief Executive Officer.

McCarthy Mentoring provides a range of mentoring programs to organisations in the corporate, not-for-profit and Government sectors.

Mentoring programs work best when there is an organisational commitment to professional development and where programs are seen by employees as a reward not remedial.

Trust is a vital part of the mentoring relationship, so both parties must guarantee confidentiality.

McCarthy Mentoring charges a fee for placement and program management.
