Mentoring and peer learning for diversity, equity and inclusion
The need to prioritise diversity and inclusion in business is more important than ever. A diverse and inclusive organisation is one that employs and equally supports people of all genders, races, religions, sexual orientations, abilities, ages, backgrounds, appearances, and cultures.
How mentoring improves diversity
Mentoring programs with a diversity focus aim to empower minority employees by developing their skills, working towards goals, and building their internal network.
With mentoring increasing advancement rates, this diversifies the talent pipeline and increases fair representation in leadership positions.

How peer learning improves inclusion
Inclusive companies are ones in which everyone feels heard.
By making peer learning an integral part of your company culture, you will foster human connection and knowledge sharing amongst all your employees, contributing to a diverse and thriving workplace.
Customer stories: LVMH
LVMH set a goal to achieve a 50:50 gender ratio across their senior leadership positions in 2020. One of their strategies for getting there was mentoring.
Guider were delighted to work with LVMH on this ambition, creating an impactful mentoring program to empower women across the group.

This programme has been a great learning experience, and an extremely enriching process working with mentors from bigger and completely different sectors within the group.
