Business Mentors

Championing Professional Business Mentoring

Mentoring excellence through the ABM

The Association of Business Mentors (ABM) is the professional body for business mentoring.  

We are the “go to” organisation for businesses looking for a professional business mentor.  We are focused on promoting and maintaining the highest standards in professional business mentoring. To do this, we continually learn, improve and innovate, supporting our members as they deliver mentoring excellence that benefits UK, Ireland and overseas businesses.

We also champion the impact of professional business mentoring, ensuring that business mentoring is recognised as a vital part of the business support landscape by business leaders, political leaders and policy decision makers.

What is mentoring?

Business mentoring is a vital part of the business support landscape. Mentoring is a process where one person offers help, guidance and support, using empathy and practical experiences of their own, to facilitate the learning and development of another.

The ABM provides an essential link to reassure business leaders that their mentor is experienced and knowledgeable.
