Coaching and mentoring

Cultural Democracy offers 1-1 coaching or mentoring to professionals working in participatory, socially engaged or community areas of the Creative sector.

This is often for ‘Engagement’ leads within Creative organisations but we have also worked with senior youth workers, teachers, CEO’s, Artistic Directors and independent artists.

Coaching and mentoring are very different, so it’s always best to have an initial chat and see which is the best fit.

We deliver this both in person (within Greater Manchester) or online.

We have found that often it can sometimes be useful for people around times of change, or when feeling an isolated or lacking in direction.

Professional coaching is goal focussed, using tools, frameworks and techniques to support people to think about their future or change they want to make in their professional lives. It is about unlocking your own ideas, ambition, fears and knowledge.

Mentoring, can be much less formal. Mentoring can sometimes be about asking for advice or guidance from the mentor- asking to sound out ideas, to get their perspective, to be given a steer or suggested next step.

For cost, availability and an informal chat about Coaching or Mentoring, just drop us an email.
