The Virtual Hero Mentoring Development Program and Process

“Mentoring is the highest form of leadership. To be invited to serve as a guide

and wisdom source for one who seeks to learn, is not only a notable

commendation, it is a unique life privilege.” Jeffrey Patnaude

How the Hero Mentoring program works:

All 12 participants view Introductory Video on Mentoring

prior to program start.

All hands virtual meeting of all Heroes and all Champion

mentees led by The Executive Mentor. This includes:

• Overview of the 12-month program and process

• Description of TWO models for session application

• Questions and Answers

Session 1: Sit Quietly – The Executive Mentor leads this

practice as the foundation of all others that will follow. Due to

its significance, the entire cohort of 12 is a part of this session in one virtual meeting. The Hero Mentors then

meet with their Triads within the two weeks following to develop further and apply.

Sessions 2‐5: Heroes only meet with The Executive Mentor and then translate the meaning and message to

Champions two weeks later using the Hero Leader’s Guide.

Pre‐work for Session 6: Each Hero completes an on‐line instrument (Psy-Cap) that measures four qualities of

a mentor for group review.

Session 6: The Executive Mentor leads the session for a review of the first six Practices with each Triad. This

session also includes reviewing the 360 Mentoring Instrument completed as pre-work.

Sessions 7‐11: Heroes only meet with The Executive Mentor and then translate the meaning and message to

Champions within two weeks using the Hero Leader’s Guide.

Session 12: The Executive Mentor leads the final lesson with each Triad including a “Reflection on

Experience” session to cement the learning.

Throughout the 12 month period, A Daily Reflection from Jeff Patnaude’s new book,

The Year of Your Transformation is sent to each participant.

“You teach best what you most need to learn.” Richard Bach, Illusions

In one 60-minute session per month, consistently in the same time slot (Ex. 2nd Fridays, 3:00-4:00 pm EST) for

12 months, each Hero in a Triad , guided by the Executive Mentor learns and practices 12 essential behaviors

of the Mentor. Following the session, within two weeks of each session, each Hero Mentor then translates

the message to the Champion Mentees they have selected for the program. This Pay-it-Forward process

represents our Teach to Learn concept and expands the number of people transformed in the process.
