About Mentoring
Art of Mentoring began with a simple insight: careers and communities transform when people have access to thoughtful, well-supported mentoring. In the late 1990s, our founders launched one of the first structured mentoring programs for women in marketing and saw how it built confidence, accelerated careers and opened doors that had previously been closed. Over time, more organisations came to us with the same challenge: “We believe in mentoring, but we don’t know how to do it well, at scale, or fairly for everyone.” Art of Mentoring grew in response to that need, evolving from a single program into a specialist mentoring partner for organisations around the world.
Too many people still miss out on mentoring because programs are informal, exclusive, or left to chance. Without intentional mentoring, talent is overlooked, future leaders lack role models, and organisations struggle to create cultures of belonging and growth.
Art of Mentoring exists to change that. We help organisations make mentoring strategic, inclusive and measurable—so that anyone, at any stage of their career, can find guidance, connection and support. Our cause is to make mentoring available to all, turning it from a “nice idea” into a proven driver of engagement, retention and leadership readiness.
Our team brings decades of experience in mentoring research, program design and delivery. We partner with associations, corporations and government agencies to design evidence‑based programs, support participants with practical resources, and use data to track outcomes and continuously improve.
We combine human insight with smart technology so programs are both deeply personal and highly scalable. From matching mentors and mentees to training, resources and evaluation, every element is designed to make mentoring easier to run and more impactful for participants.
Our new visual identity reflects what we do best: create strong, modern, human connections within complex organisations. The bold forms and vibrant purple signal energy, momentum and a forward‑looking approach to mentoring, while the clean structure mirrors the frameworks we bring to every program.
Where earlier imagery focused on symbolism, today’s Art of Mentoring brand is centred on clarity and impact—making it easy for leaders, mentors and mentees to see themselves in our work. It is a visual expression of our belief that when people are supported to learn from each other, everyone moves further, faster, together.
Behind Art of Mentoring is a leadership team united by a shared purpose: to make high‑quality mentoring accessible to more people in more places. Drawing on diverse sector experience, they champion rigorous program design, ethical practice and continuous innovation so that every mentoring program delivers meaningful outcomes for individuals, organisations and communities.
We are moving beyond the era of mentoring as a "nice-to-have". My vision is to empower organizations with the technology and data they need to turn human connection into a strategic engine for retention, leadership, and growth.
Chief Executive Officer
Angus leads Art of Mentoring with a clear commercial reality in mind: talent is an organization’s most valuable, and volatile, asset. With over twenty years of global leadership experience across Australia and Asia, he brings a sophisticated understanding of how high-performing teams are built and sustained.
Before taking the helm, Angus founded and successfully exited two recruitment firms in Hong Kong and held senior roles with global giants like Michael Page. He understands the “talent lifecycle” from every angle. Today, he combines that commercial rigour with a people-centric philosophy, guiding the Art of Mentoring team to deliver scalable, secure, and impactful solutions for enterprise clients.
The transformative moments in my life were shaped by exceptional mentors who invested in my growth. My goal is to pay that forward, ensuring our clients have the framework and support to create those same life-changing connections for their own people.
Head of Client Success
As Head of Client Success, Craig bridges the gap between complex strategy and day-to-day execution. What makes Craig unique is his direct operational experience: before joining the team, he managed the extensive AHRI mentoring program himself.
He understands exactly what keeps program managers up at night because he has sat in their chair. Today, he uses that deep, first-hand knowledge to lead the Art of Mentoring success team, ensuring that every organization we partner with receives not just software support, but expert guidance on building a scalable culture of mentorship.
Mentoring isn't just a "nice to have", it is a critical driver of organizational performance. My mission is to help leaders see the direct link between investing in human connection and achieving sustainable, long-term business growth.
