“Mentoring opens up a whole new era of support for our driving instructors. They don’t get much feedback or interactions day to day, but they thrive on helping people develop. Bringing mentoring into Thrive gives them a structured way to do that. It’s a really powerful tool for the future.”

Frequently asked mentoring questions

Is mentoring an add-on, or included as part of the platform?

Mentoring is included in Thrive at no extra cost. Every organisation, regardless of size, can set up and manage mentoring programmes that help employees develop the skills and experience they want to gain.

How does mentoring work in Thrive?

Thrive uses smart matching to connect employees with mentors who have the skills and experience they are looking to gain. Learners can set goals, track progress, and access shared resources, while mentors provide personalised guidance and feedback to support development and career growth.

Can I purchase mentoring on its own?

Yes. Thrive's mentoring software is available as a standalone product, so you don't need the full LMS platform to get started. You get the same smart matching, goal tracking, in-app messaging and reporting whether you use mentoring on its own or as part of the wider platform. If you decide to expand later, everything is already connected.

How to choose mentoring software for business

Start with what you actually need it to do. The best mentoring software for business should include smart mentor matching, goal tracking, built-in messaging and reporting as a minimum. Avoid platforms that require manual matching through spreadsheets or charge extra for core features. Look for software that scales across use cases like leadership development, sales coaching, onboarding and DE&I mentoring rather than just one. Thrive includes all of this as standard, which is where it differs from standalone tools like MentorcliQ, Together and Chronus that often require separate integrations for analytics, communication or learning content. If mentoring is part of a wider L&D strategy, choose a platform that connects mentoring to your learning ecosystem rather than sitting alongside it.

What is mentoring software?

Mentoring software is a platform that helps organisations run, manage and scale mentoring programmes. It connects mentors and mentees, tracks progress and provides structured tools to support skills development, career growth and knowledge sharing. Thrive's mentoring software goes further with AI-powered mentor matching, built-in messaging, goal tracking and real time reporting, all included as standard.

What is peer to peer learning and why does it matter?

Peer to peer learning is where employees learn from each other by sharing knowledge, experience and real world insights. It's one of the most effective ways to develop skills because it's immediate, relevant and grounded in actual work. Thrive enables peer to peer learning through mentoring, social learning spaces and structured knowledge sharing, helping organisations build capability faster than traditional training alone.

What is the best sales coaching software?

Thrive's mentoring software helps sales teams learn from top performers through structured mentoring, peer conversations and guided coaching sessions. Reps get matched with experienced mentors who share real techniques, objection handling and deal strategies. It's a more effective approach than traditional sales training because the learning comes from people who are actually doing the job, not just teaching it.

What is the best mentoring software for business?

The best mentoring software for business should include smart mentor matching, goal tracking, in-app messaging and reporting as a minimum. Thrive is rated highly on G2 and Capterra because it goes beyond standalone mentoring tools by combining mentoring with a full LMS, AI-powered features and social learning. Organisations like Vodafone, British Airways and Burger King use Thrive to run mentoring programmes that drive leadership development, onboarding and skills growth at scale. It's also available as a standalone product, so you don't need the full platform to get started.

How to mentor an employee

Start by setting clear goals together and meeting regularly. The best mentoring relationships are built on trust, honest conversation and shared accountability. Focus on listening, asking questions and sharing real experience rather than just giving instructions. Track progress against goals so both mentor and mentee can see growth over time. Tools like Thrive's mentoring software make this easier by handling the matching, goal setting, scheduling and progress tracking automatically, so you can focus on the conversation, not the admin.
