Facilitated Business to Business Advisory Groups - Small groups of business owners, meeting once a month to work ON their businesses, to seek advice from their team members and in turn assist with solutions to each other's business challenges. In “fancy” terms Mentor2Mentor is a Business Advisory Board

In “simple” terms Mentor2Mentor is essentially a small group of business owners (8 in each group) meeting together, once a month, for around 5 hours to work ON their business and help each other with their business concerns and challenges

Many business owners feel lonely and disconnected (regardless of the size of their business)

They often find family and friends don’t always understand or they simply don’t want to worry them with their business concerns

How can Mentor2Mentor help me? Mentor2Mentor gives you TIME...

Time to:
Work on your business (something we all mean to do, but never seem to get to)

Time to:
Park your problems on your team’s “whiteboard”

Time to:
Be totally yourself, in a safe, trusted, totally non-judgemental, transparent environment. What “goes on in the room – stays in the room”)

Time to:
Mentor each other and learn from your team’s experience, knowledge and expertise

Time to:
Receive help and advice from those who truly understand – those who have “been there-done that”

Time to:
Improve your business and move it forward

Business priorities can easily get pushed aside by whatever needs attention today.

A 90-day plan creates a manageable window for making progress. It’s far enough ahead to work towards something meaningful, without trying to predict where the business will be six or twelve months from now.

Within Mentor2Mentor, the plan isn’t filed away once it’s created. Members review and adjust it monthly as the business develops.

During a review, you can:

• Check the progress you’ve made.

• Adjust priorities when circumstances have changed.

• Reconsider work that is taking time without moving the business forward.

• Decide where your attention needs to go for the month ahead.

That monthly check-in gives members a useful point to make decisions about the plan while staying accountable to what they set out to achieve over the 90 days.

What does respect look like when someone at the table sees things very differently from you?

Respect for Self and Others is one of Mentor2Mentor’s core values, and it shapes how people are treated around our Board tables.

Business owners come into these conversations with their own perspectives and lived experiences, so there will naturally be times when opinions differ.

In those moments, respect means giving another person genuine consideration. That might mean having the courtesy to let someone finish their thought, or listening carefully instead of preparing your response while they’re still speaking.

This helps create an environment where members feel comfortable contributing openly. Around a Mentor2Mentor Board table, people should know that what they bring to the conversation will be heard and treated with dignity.

The same principle carries into leadership beyond the Boardroom. How we respond when someone challenges our thinking can influence whether they feel comfortable coming to us again with an idea, concern or something we may need to hear.

Empathy has a very practical place in business.

For leaders, it can shape how we listen and respond when someone brings a different perspective to the table. It asks us to understand where another person is coming from before deciding what we think about what they’ve said.

In practice, empathy can look quite simple:

• Giving someone the time to explain what’s happening without jumping straight in with an answer.

• Asking a little more when something doesn’t quite make sense, rather than filling in the gaps ourselves.

• Paying attention to the person behind the business issue. What they’re dealing with may affect how they approach a decision or conversation.

• Making room for a perspective that comes from a very different set of experiences to our own.

Empathy is one of Mentor2Mentor’s core values, and it plays an important role around our Board tables. Members bring different experiences and ways of thinking, so listening with genuine interest helps make those conversations more open and useful.

It’s something worth carrying into our everyday leadership as well. The next time someone brings a different point of view to the conversation, it may be worth considering: have I really understood where they’re coming from before offering my own?

Knowing exactly what you’re paying for matters when you’re investing in your business.

The Mentor2Mentor membership is designed to provide ongoing support throughout the month, with a full-day advisory meeting at the centre of the experience.

Membership includes:

• A full-day monthly advisory meeting
• Professional facilitation and accountability processes
• Access to tools and resources
• Group communication channels
• Additional online sessions or face-to-face meetings, where applicable

These different parts of the membership give business owners ways to stay connected and continue working on their priorities beyond the monthly meeting.

There are no hidden fees, so members know what’s included from the outset.

Why does Mentor2Mentor cap every Board at seven members? It comes down to giving each person enough space to have a worthwhile conversation.

When business owners bring a real challenge to the table, they need time to talk it through properly. A smaller group gives each person room to explain what’s happening and hear perspectives from people who understand the realities of running a business.

Seven also gives members the chance to listen without feeling they have to rush towards an answer. Some conversations need time before the useful question or observation emerges.

Over time, a smaller group also gives people the opportunity to understand each other’s businesses more closely. There’s context behind the conversation, so members aren’t starting from scratch every time an issue comes up.

That close-knit familiarity can make the time around the table far more useful.

Every region has its own business community.

Across Parramatta, the Sydney Hills and the Hawkesbury, we've had the opportunity to work alongside business owners from many different industries. Some have been operating for decades. Others are building something new. Every business has its own story.

What stands out is how often similar challenges emerge, regardless of the industry. A manufacturing business and a professional services firm may have very different operations, yet both can be working through the same leadership decision or looking for a better way to grow.

Mentor2Mentor Business Boards bring those different experiences together. Members learn from businesses they might never otherwise meet, and those conversations often uncover ideas that don't emerge when everyone around the table comes from the same background.

We're proud to support business owners across Parramatta, the Sydney Hills and the Hawkesbury, and we'd love to welcome more local business owners into the Mentor2Mentor community.

Jim Rohn's quote is a good reminder that growth isn't only influenced by what we read or the courses we take. It's also shaped by the conversations we have regularly.

Business owners often become the person everyone turns to for advice. Over time, that can mean spending more time giving answers than having your own thinking challenged.

That's one of the reasons many business owners value being part of a Mentor2Mentor Board. The discussion isn't about telling someone what decision to make. It's about asking better questions, testing assumptions and drawing on decades of business experience from around the table.

The quality of the conversations around you has a way of influencing the quality of the decisions you make.

Who has challenged your thinking in a way that's helped your business grow?

What does a typical Mentor2Mentor Board meeting look like?

Every meeting follows a structured process, giving members dedicated time to step away from the day-to-day demands of running a business and focus on the issues that matter most.

That starts before anyone walks into the room. Members complete their M2M Portal pre-work, including updating their Temperature Gauge, reflecting on the previous month, highlighting the challenges they'd like help with and reviewing their 90-day plan. By the time the meeting begins, everyone has already spent time thinking about where they need the greatest support.

A typical Board meeting includes:

• Welcome and updates to reconnect with the group.

• Wins and check-ins, where members share progress since the previous meeting.

• Member hot seats, giving each business owner dedicated time to explore a current challenge with the support of the Board.

• Peer mentoring guided by an experienced facilitator, drawing on the decades of business experience around the table to uncover ideas, options and practical approaches.

• Clear action planning, so every member leaves with agreed next steps to work on before the next meeting.

Every part of the meeting is there for a reason. The structure helps members move beyond simply talking about challenges and towards making decisions, taking action and returning the following month ready to build on that progress.

People often ask why our founder Bev chose to focus on mentoring business owners after spending more than 40 years building and running businesses herself.

The answer is simple. She knows what business ownership asks of you.

Born in South Africa, Bev moved to Australia with her husband, George, and their two young children in 1977. Over the following decades, she built and managed four successful businesses, giving her firsthand experience of the responsibility, uncertainty and decision-making that come with leading a business.

That experience led to the launch of Mentor2Mentor in 2021. Bev wanted to create a place where small groups of like-minded, non-competing business owners could come together in a structured, confidential environment to share their goals, discuss their challenges and benefit from the collective experience around the table.

In 2025, Bev sold Ladybird Gifts after 17 years to dedicate her time fully to Mentor2Mentor. Today, she's committed to helping business owners uncover insights, explore options they may not have considered and make business feel a little less lonely.

Is the way you lead today the same way you led when you started your business?

For many business owners, growth changes more than the size of the business. It changes what's expected of the person leading it. The habits that helped you build a successful business won't always support the next stage of growth.

This carousel explores several leadership shifts that many business owners experience as they grow. You may recognise one that's already happening in your own business.
