Join us for a 16 week training where you will take a journey through the 7 stages of mentoring and learn how to be more masterful in you our own life and more effective at serving others.

We believe that:

Serving others is our highest calling and in order to effectively serve another we must have a foundation of self knowledge, self awareness, and self mastery. We believe there is a crisis taking place with the youth and young adults in our communities and that the need for mentorship is essential for empowering young people in the discovery of their strength, creativity, and potential.

The Noble Mentor Development Program presents these skills and practices in a way that cultivates mastery and provides a powerful guide for mentoring our youth.

This course is for coaches, mentors, educators, leaders, or anyone who desires to be of service to others in more meaningful and effective ways. Throughout this 16-week course, you will apply these mentoring skills in your own life as well as learn how to facilitate this process for another as a mentor.

 

These are a few of the areas we will cover:

  • The 7 Stages of Mentoring and how to efficiently move through each of these stages.
  • Building connection – practices for more subtle and effective communication and listening.
  • How to identify and and navigate the core challenge in yourself and in your clients life
  • How to create a long term vision for the future
  • Goal setting, making and breaking habits, and holding accountability.
  • Cultivating self awareness and mindfulness practices for developing the witness
  • Working with the shadow as it relates to mentoring
  • Working with family systems
  • Identifying your core values and personal ethic
  • And much more…

If interested, begin the application process here where we will schedule a preliminary interview to see if this training would be a good fit for you.

What is a mentor?

The most organized form of this relationship takes place in the mentor/mentee context. However, mentorship stretches far beyond the professional sphere. Mentoring might take place between a father and his son, or within his son’s peer group, between a supervisor and an employee, an upperclassman with an incoming freshman, an older sibling with his younger brother or sister, a teacher with a student, or a friend with a friend in need. Whatever the context might be, the material in this program will make you a more effective, authentic, and impactful mentor. So whether you are already working in the field or are simply interested in being a more effective human being, this workshop may be for you.

Who is the Mentor Development Program designed for?

For mentors, Individuals who through circumstance, necessity, or intent have found themselves in a position of having an influence upon another. In reality, we are all in this position somewhere in our lives.
For anybody who sees the value and importance of serving others and feels within themselves a calling to take part in this kind of intentional relationship.

For those who are willing to face the thresholds and challenges of life and fashion the successes and errors of this life experience into understanding, humility, compassion, and wisdom.

For those who crave to be exceptional, not by any external criteria, but by an inner standard of integrity and personal truth that inevitably yearns to contribute to others and the world at large in meaningful ways.
For those who want to live a life that is not all about “themselves” but instead about what can be given and who can be served. This is an expression of our true potential, and this is who the Mentor Development Program is designed for.

Who is this program not for?

This program is not for the casual or halfhearted person. It is not a “shortcut” or collection of “life-hacks” meant to offset the requirement of doing difficult things. If you want to play games, just get by, cut corners, keep things safe and comfortable, and maintain the status quo this is not for you.

This is not for someone who simply wants to collect ideas, unwilling to apply them in their own life.
This is not a get rich scheme. If your primary interest and motivation in mentoring is to make money or to pump up your ego, this program is not for you.

Thankfully mentoring does not require that you have all the answers or know all the solutions. Noble Mentoring does require an equal portion of strength and humility. People who have not yet found their independence (financial, emotional, and interpersonal) will likely struggle to incorporate this material, and should instead work first on developing these skills through the Mastery Level Mentoring program, before beginning the Mentor Development Program.
