I always get value from attending the ABM education and networking sessions: session leaders framing the topics share pointers, and connecting with peers and hearing real world experiences generously shared is insightful.

Membership of the ABM has brought huge value to my clients. The regular events and training opportunities, combined with the opportunity to discuss and reflect on mentoring topics and issues with fellow ABM members, have helped to develop my skills as a professional business mentor, ensuring that the support and guidance I provide my clients are the best it can possibly be.
