Workplace mentoring and coaching are proven drivers of stronger organisations, helping to increase productivity, improve team performance and support business growth.

ABM’s 2025 research with UK HR and People Directors found that 70% strongly agreed mentoring and coaching had positively impacted business performance, 66% said it had improved employee retention and talent attraction, and 61% said it had improved employee wellbeing.

However, the research also highlighted that workplace mentoring programmes do not always deliver their full potential. Common challenges include lack of time, inconsistent adoption, poor matching and limited structure.

The ABM Workplace Mentoring and Coaching Diagnostic helps you understand how well mentoring and coaching are embedded across your organisation, and where additional support could unlock greater impact.
