In the fiercely competitive international business environment organisations need to actively engage in attracting, recruiting, and retaining top talent. Mentoring as a key part of talent management is pertinent, especially in the context of multinational corporations that employ diverse employees from across the globe. The study utilised a mixed-methods approach, commencing with a pre-assessment of mentors’ competencies and psychological mindsets which informed the design of a mentor development journey. The latter was applied as an intervention to prepare mentors to provide engaged mentoring within a selected organisation. Findings show that the mentor development journey enhanced the competencies and psychological mindsets of mentors.
