The award-winning mentoring program now demonstrates the following:
Higher match retention
Higher percentage of long-term matches
Increased participant satisfaction
Improved mentoring relationships
Positive mentor and mentee outcomes
"Owen Consulting was not only the right organization at the right time (the school, ISA, and the Major Wall Street Investment Bank were in the process of revamping the mentoring program) but they possessed an expert arsenal of tools to go along with the necessary flexibility and adaptability we required. From the beginning, Dave sought to fashion a program that fit with and around our prevailing constraints and requirements. He and his colleagues are so well grounded in youth development theory and Mentoring practice that it gave me, the administrator, permission to not be the expert on the best approaches. Owen Consulting new how to actually build the program and how to make it work. There is no overestimating how valuable a skill that is to a busy manager.
Furthermore, Dave and his consultants moved easily between the various "spheres" required to form an effective mentoring program, working with staff at the highest levels of the Firm, our at-risk students, teachers at the school, and the mentee's parents. They are expert at speaking the different "languages" necessary to run the program (corporate, education, youth development, etc.), and always keep in mind the chief goal: Assisting young people to succeed.
As a direct result of Owen Consulting's involvement with the MCA Corporate Mentoring Program, it is stronger than it has ever been and, more importantly, many more young people's lives are being positively impacted than would otherwise be the case."
