Participation in Mentoring Programs

    Dear OB Colleagues,

     

    My research partners and I recently completed the first phase of a mentoring study for a large insurance company in the North Eastern US. We learned that 40% of the organization's members reported they had participated as a mentee in a formal or informal mentoring relationship in the last year. The organization asked us how this participation rate compares to other organizations.

     

    Could anyone provide insight on mentoring participation across organizations?

     

    Thank you,

     

    Paul
