Scale your DEI mentorship program
Mentoring is often a missing piece to the DEI puzzle. Advance diverse talent in the workplace with DEI mentorship programs.
Develop and retain diverse talent through mentorship
True equity and inclusion needs to go beyond superficial hiring tactics. 10KC mentoring software boosts visibility and builds networks for all employees, fostering a community-driven approach to DEI.
Why DEI mentorship programs are the key to an inclusive workplace
Accelerate DEI goals
Want to see real DEI impact? Mentorship programs provide equitable access to career development opportunities and cultivate a sense of belonging for everyone, driving employee retention, engagement, and promotion.
Connect diverse talent with empowering networks
Relying solely on organic connections can perpetuate bias and limit visibility of underrepresented talent. Build an equitable workplace by intentionally connecting diverse talent with the leaders, mentors, and networks they need to thrive.
All the skills employees need to thrive, built in with 10KC
10KC’s built-in discussion guides keep every mentoring conversation focused on developing, practicing, and applying the skills every employee needs to progress, including:
Drive career development and track progress
Support the advancement and mobility of underrepresented employees with intentional DEI mentoring programs. Track their progress, engagement, network growth, and skill development to ensure they have the opportunities they deserve.

“Our attrition for underrepresented talent was hovering around 32%, which was a big red flag for me. [..] It became very apparent that mentorship was missing. We quickly got together and piloted a mentorship program. We surveyed participants and overwhelmingly it was a positive experience. The next step became, how do we scale this in a sustainable way? That's where 10KC came in and really was a game changer.”
