Why should you join TPC’s mentorship programme?

There are millions of leaders around the world wanting to be more entrepreneurial, build great businesses and make a positive difference. We’re on a mission to support each and every one of them. According to Forbes, mentored companies grow 3.5x faster and raise 7x more money. However, for CEOs and their teams, finding a good mentor is hard. That’s where this programme comes in.

For a one-off fee of £2,500, we’ll provide you with the knowledge, network and confidence to become a great mentor to entrepreneurial leaders – and we’ll prioritise you for paid advisory roles as a TPC accredited mentor.

How it works

Our mentorship programme is a 10-week course with two live (video) 90-minute sessions per week plus a 30-minute check-in every Friday. You’ll be expected to spend 8-10 hours per week between attending sessions, doing homework and taking part in hands-on mentoring of a real founder.

Designed and taught by Ben Legg, CEO and Cofounder of TPC (plus seasoned mentor and NED) along with hand-picked experts, the course covers a range of modules covering working with founders, fundraising, enabling explosive growth, developing leaders, emotional intelligence, building the right support network, plus so much more.

We’ll also help you build a compelling, differentiated profile here on The Portfolio Collective platform, to define your personal brand, values, offerings and credentials to potential clients.

The next cohort will be kicking off at the beginning of May 2024. 

TPC exceeded my expectations

The group was very diverse and provided many opportunities to learn from the instructors and the group members. This group will be a very good source of talent and advice going forward and I look forward to maintaining an ongoing relationship with my cohort and TPC as a whole. I recommend it to anyone who wants to bring scholarship to their mentoring as a career or part of their individual professional portfolio.

As a graduate of TPC's Mentoring…

As a graduate of TPC's Mentoring Accreditation, I've been really impressed by the scope of knowledge the TPC brought to the course. Coupled with this, they have been incredibly attentive and supportive. An intensive, productive and very rewarding experience. Can't recommend it highly enough.

Marcus

Second cohort of the mentoring programme

It was excellent. The training materials provided and the knowledge of the facilitators is second to none. Coupled with real life pro-bono mentoring experience with the CEO of a startup, the course sets you up perfectly for your own mentoring journey, with opportunities coming from the TPC network. I completely recommend the course.
