Drafting your 2027 People plan? Can you answer these three questions?

→ Is your people data honest enough to trust, and does it ever change a decision?
→ Is the person you promoted ready to manage, or just very good at their current job?
→ When budgets get set, which culture spend earns its place?

On 18 November, Deepak Singh and Renée Giarrusso take them on live together with Mentorloop co-founder Heidi Holmes, making a call on what to stop, start and continue in your organisation in 2027.

Free, 12:30pm AEDT.

From first semester to final year, mentoring meets students where they are. 🎓

Arden University's ACE Mentoring program surveyed its participants. Students are increasingly able to better visualise their future: 79% of mentees said it increased their career confidence and 74% felt more motivated to complete their degree. 87% of mentors said they would definitely volunteer again, and none said no.

UVA School of Education and Human Development's Making KINEctions program pairs upperclassmen and alumni with first-year kinesiology students, creating space for questions they might not put to a professor. The program has built greater connection between and among students and alumni, with mentorship events enjoying high attendance.

Congratulations to these universities and 2026 Mentorloop Impact Award winners, and thank you for allowing us to be part of giving young people more confidence in their futures. 💛

What happens after the last mentoring session? Three 2026 Mentorloop Impact Award winners in health, ability and wellbeing have some amazing insight to share.

Back Up: Mentees enter their program at one of the most challenging periods of their lives. Later, they return as volunteers, advocates and mentors, creating what the team calls a “virtuous circle of support” for people affected by spinal cord injury.

headspace: one mentor's next session with their mentee became a celebration of a graduate job offer. Mentors are taking what they learn back to their teams and workplaces, creating a more psychologically safe environment for all.

Australian Disability Network: mentees who first came for career guidance now come back wanting to support someone else, growing into advocates, role models and leaders for others.

Congratulations to Back Up, headspace, and the Australian Disability Network. We are incredibly proud to be a small part of the impact you are making in your communities. 💛

If your CFO started questioning every line item in your 2027 People plan, and asked you to cut one, would you know what to cut, and what to fight to keep? 🤔

It's a hard one, so we're tackling it live on Wednesday 18 November, with our co-founder Heidi Holmes hosting Deepak Singh, one of Culture Amp's Top 25 Emerging Culture Creators, and Renée Giarrusso, award-winning author, coach, and leadership expert.

We'll be chatting about what they'd stop, start, and continue in 2027: from the people data you collect, to how you choose your managers, to which culture spend actually earns its place in your budget.

It's free and live at 12:30pm AEDT. Can't make it? Register anyway and we'll send you the recording! Link is in the comments. 👇

In their own words, here is what mentoring has become for three of our 2026 Mentorloop Impact Award winners:

nib health: mentoring has turned development from something employees expect to receive into something they “actively drive.” The program is now in its seventh cohort, with 604 mentoring loops and many mentees who have become mentors. 🙌

Elexon: mentoring is becoming “a normal and valued part of our development culture,” giving colleagues a more structured, accessible way to take ownership of their development. 🤝

Veritext: “please never stop this program,” said one participant. Senior leaders are completely bought in, many are mentoring again this year, and colleagues are asking how to get involved as a mentor or a mentee. 💛

Congratulations to nib, Elexon and Veritext, and thanks for letting us be a part of your mentoring journeys.

A mentee lands an internship, then wants to give back. Three mentoring program participants connect and are about to publish essential research together.

These are the kinds of moments that came through in the stories from four association winners of the 2026 Mentorloop Impact Awards:

AOIA expected around 50 participants in year one. The number grew into the hundreds, and mentors and mentees are now meeting in person at conferences and events.

Royal Society of Chemistry has achieved nearly 750 mentoring partnerships, where it was normally around 250 a year before, and now has over 1,200 participants on the platform.

The Law Society of NSW is using peer support to help members through the profession's long-standing pressures of burnout and stress, connecting people even in regional, rural, and remote communities.

American Ambulance Association is seeing emerging leaders mentor the next group coming through, with the potential to create real change across EMS in the USA.

Congratulations to the coordinators behind each program, and thank you for letting us be part of your story. 💛

Engagement by Design is live this Thursday, you're running out of time to grab a spot! 🏃

Most mentoring programs launch with plenty of buzz, then somewhere around weeks 6–8, things go quiet. The novelty has worn off, but relationships aren’t yet deep enough to run on their own. 😕

That slump is usually a design problem, which means you can fix it! 💡

On Thursday, October 15th, Jess Benham from Mentorloop will walk through what the most engaged programs do differently:
→ Getting leaders visible before launch
→ Using built-in recognition to beat the mid-program slump
→ Spotting drop-off early, before it snowballs
→ Turning participants into champions of your program

Plus real examples from the most engaged programs on Mentorloop, and a live Q&A for your toughest engagement challenges.

The wait is over!

Meet the 2026 Mentorloop Impact Award recipients! 🎉

25 mentoring programs from every type of organisation across the globe, in the sixth year of the awards. Every single one of them has made us so proud of being a small part of their mentoring journey. 💛

What they share is a belief that mentoring is for everyone. They bring together people from different places and life experiences, open the door for those who might never have had the chance, and build workplaces and communities where people grow together. 🌱

And behind each program are coordinators who care enough to make it happen, and mentors and mentees who show up for each other. Thank you all for inspiring us to continue creating human connections, and congratulations on the incredible results of your hard work and dedication. 🙌
