Hi [First Name],

We are thrilled to announce that you have been selected to participate in Mento Coaching. Through this program, you will be paired with an experienced coach who will work with you regularly to support your professional growth and career development.

Mento provides biweekly one-on-one coaching and mentorship as well as online coaching tools to encourage progress. Discover more about Mento’s unique approach here.

Program Overview

• Duration: XX Months
• Coaching Sessions: Every other week, XX minutes each (45 Minutes for Leadership / 60 Minutes for Executive)
• Your Role: Set up your recurring coaching sessions as soon as possible

Next Steps

1. Get Started on the Mento Platform – ****Sign up at https://app.mento.co/get-started, with your [COMPANY] email, to begin your coaching journey.
2. Next, complete your coaching baseline survey here.
3. Watch the Info Session Recording – This short video covers onboarding, program expectations, and tips for making the most of your coaching experience. You can watch it here [LINK] (from the initial Coaching Kickoff)

Maximizing Your Coaching Experience

Immediately after registering, you submit an async reflection or schedule a match call with Mento. This will help Mento learn a bit about you, including any goals, preferences, or questions you might have.

Following that, you'll be sent links to schedule chemistry calls with coaches you'd like to meet with. Our recommendation here is that you select a coach that has been in a role within the same industry as yours (i.e. a leader in Product, or a leader in Engineering, or a leader in Data, etc)

Once you've made a decision about your coach, you will then schedule a standing coaching meeting for every two weeks.

This coaching initiative is an investment in you. As a vital contributor to our company’s success, your full participation is essential. We encourage you to be open and honest with your coach to get the most out of this program (rest assured, your coaching sessions are confidential.)

Congratulations — we are excited to have you get started on your growth journey!

Best,

[Your Name]
