Impact Policy has developed a mentoring program aimed at executive and senior leaders. 
 
The purpose of the mentoring program is to strengthen relationships between Senior leaders and Aboriginal people through a relational mentoring program. 
 
This embeds First Nations perspectives, improve, and enhance the cultural capability of organisations by partnering senior leaders with a First Nations mentor with both lived and professional experience working and living in Aboriginal communities and driving change at organisations. 
 
The concept is underpinned by two-way conversations whereby mentees can ask for advice,
guidance and input on First Nations matter involving policy, service delivery, culture,
history and understanding. This is designed to meet participants where they are at, whether foundational and formative introductions to Aboriginal People and Culture or more nuanced and specific based on the Cultural Capability of participants.
