The Nine Network mentoring model was relatively informal, with just enough organisational support to ensure that participants were equipped to manage the relationships, help them to happen and monitor the mentoring programs to ensure they delivered what the participants needed and valued. It was not a time-consuming or expensive model - talk to your Human Resources department about introducing something similar!
