AMD and MentorcliQ

AMD and MentorcliQ won a Silver Brandon Hall Group Excellence Award for Talent Management in the category of Best High Potential Development. This celebrates achievements the AMD team made with its Path to Fellow Mentoring Program, which supports high-potential women in the technical staff at AMD who are on the cusp of a promotion to Fellow. The initial cohort saw 20% of the mentees receive a rigorously vetted, merit-based promotion to Fellow, which was a 3X increase in promotions compared to recent years. In addition, 94% of the participants remained engaged throughout the nine-month relationships, recording 566 hours of mentoring.

Gannett and MentorcliQ 

Gannett and MentorcliQ won two Brandon Hall Group Awards together. The first is a Silver Brandon Hall Group Excellence Award for Talent Management in the category of Best Employee Engagement. This honor was given for Gannett’s L.A.U.N.C.H. Mentoring Program, which supports employees with a tenure of three months to three years, helping them better understand the culture at Gannett, connect with communities that exist within the organization, and become more successful employees who stay with the company and grow their careers.

Gannett and MentorcliQ also won a Silver Brandon Hall Group Excellence Award for Leadership Development in the category of Best Coaching and Mentoring Program. This award recognized Gannett’s mentoring strategy, which spans the enterprise and supports Gannett’s commitment to improve employee engagement, increase employee retention, reduce voluntary turnover rates, and improve promotion rates for staff.

Wintrust and MentorcliQ

Wintrust and MentorcliQ won a Bronze Brandon Hall Group Excellence Award for Leadership Development in the category of Best Coaching and Mentoring Program.
