Self-Skills Sharing Session – Colour-Aware Mentoring: using C-Me style profiling

Are you adapting your mentoring style or simply hoping it resonates? The most effective mentors don’t deliver a one-size-fits-all experience. They read the individual in front of them, flex their approach, and communicate in ways that genuinely connect. But how do you do that consistently, with clarity and a shared language your clients can also understand and use?

In this month’s ABM Skills Sharing Session, Alan Leckey, Chartered Manager, ICF Master Coach, and accredited C-Me Colour Profiling practitioner, explores how profiling can enhance the quality and impact of your mentoring conversations. Together, we examine how understanding behavioural preferences can shift your questioning, deepen rapport, and improve client outcomes in real time.

Aligned with ABM Core Competency: Effective Communication and Relationship-Building, this session challenges the assumption that good communication is instinctive. Instead, it introduces a practical, structured approach to tailoring your mentoring style to the individual, helping you move from assumption to intentional connection.

In this session, we explore:
• The four C-Me colour profiles and what they reveal about how clients think, decide, and communicate
• How to recognise behavioural cues and adapt your questioning style in the moment
• Using profiling as a shared tool with clients to build awareness and mutual understanding
• The connection between colour awareness and stronger mentoring relationships
• Why this simple, accessible framework is gaining traction among business mentors and SME advisors

You will be introduced to the C-Me Colour Profiling model, a practical framework that helps you and your clients better understand communication preferences and behavioural tendencies, enabling more effective, tailored mentoring conversations.
