MOBILE MANAGEMENTOR®
THE IDEAL MOBILE MANAGEMENT COMPANION
MOBILE MANAGEMENTOR® CONNECTS THE ACCESSIBILITY OF TODAY’S
SMARTPHONES WITH THE POWER OF PROVEN CONTENT FROM HARVARD
MANAGEMENTOR® TO CREATE THE IDEAL MOBILE MANAGEMENT COMPANION
OVERVIEW
Mobile ManageMentor is a mobile application designed to provide quick answers and expert tips
to important management problems. Powered by Harvard ManageMentor®, Harvard Business
Publishing’s award-winning online learning solution, this application is designed specifically for use
through smartphones and handheld devices. Mobile ManageMentor® offers quick introductions or
refreshers to managers and will help you extend the reach of your leadership development programs.
The learning experience is optimized for a mobile device, with a duration ranging from 2 minutes
(e.g., getting a quick tip on how to give corrective feedback) to 15 minutes (e.g., exploring key concepts
on how to resolve a conflict between employees). We’ve taken the best concepts and content from
Harvard ManageMentor and created a new experience tailored specifically for mobile use.
Whether managers are looking for advice, need a last-minute reminder on delivering a compelling presentation, or find themselves away from their desks and other support resources, Mobile
ManageMentor provides brief, concise, and immediately actionable expert advice. A mix of media
formats, including video insights from experts, leaders, and practitioners and audio summaries, give
managers options to access content based on their time and learning preferences.
Organizations can view and report usage of Mobile ManageMentor through an easy-to-use online
Administrative Console. Reports include the number of accesses and the number of times each tip
was accessed, to assist in alignment with other leader development programs and resources.
