## What is the Mentor Cultivation Tool?

The Mentor Cultivation Tool (MCT) helps you identify high-potential mentors, build a strong mentor bench, develop more mentors, and use data in your mentor selection.  It’s not easy to know who your high-potential mentors are; this tool brings them into view so that your programming is backed by evidence instead of guesswork.

### **Mentor Discovery**

See which mentors are driving the strongest outcomes, combining data you already have and/or the MCT generates.

### **Mentor Pipeline**

Build a ready bench of proven mentors so your program isn't scrambling to recruit available mentors for each placement.

### **Development Insights**

Flag development opportunities for promising mentors who need support or training to become mentor-ready.

### Selection Confidence

Give program leaders a clear, data-backed rationale for mentor selection and program investment decisions.

## How Does It Work?

The Mentor Cultivation Tool helps you identify the mentors best positioned to succeed. Use it on its own, or connect your existing culture surveys, state license data or evaluations. Add Torace matching and Torace Training Center data and the Mentor Cultivation Tool gets sharper over time with no extra work from your team.

**Implementation is simple:** choose the data you want to use, we do the work.

**The result:** evidence-backed lists of your high-potential mentors ready whenever you need to set up a mentoring opportunity.
