Mentoring: A key component of Conduent culture

The well-known phrase “Culture eats strategy for breakfast” reminds us that while strategy sets direction, culture determines how willing and prepared people are to move in that direction. As Conduent evolves, we continue to foster associate engagement, support their development, and strengthen the connections that make our workplace vibrant. One of the most impactful ways we do this is through mentorship.

Mentorship builds relationships

At Conduent, we take pride in fostering an open, inclusive culture rooted in strong communication and genuine human connection. Decades of research, including Harvard’s renowned Happiness Study—highlight that relationships are essential to longterm fulfillment and wellbeing. Within this context, mentorship becomes more than a professional tool; it becomes a source of belonging, confidence, and mutual growth.

Many Conduent mentors and mentees form bonds that last long after their formal partnership ends. These meaningful relationships strengthen our organization by creating supportive networks across functions, teams, and even geographies.

Our companywide mentorship program is specifically designed to connect associates across different departments—and whenever possible, across different regions of the world. These crosscompany partnerships serve as bridges that expand perspectives, encourage collaboration, and enhance communication throughout the organization.

Mentorship fosters growth

Professional growth is central to both our mission and our culture. Every Conduent associate follows a career development plan, setting goals and tracking their progress throughout the year. Our mentorship program is a powerful contributor to that journey.

Mentees define the skills or knowledge they want to build, and mentors commit to helping them move closer to clarity, capability, and confidence. Importantly, a mentee’s goals do not have to align with their current role. For example, an associate working in project management but aspiring toward a future in finance can be paired with a mentor experienced in that discipline.

This flexibility empowers associates to explore new interests, discover emerging opportunities, and build the competencies that position them for internal mobility. The result is a culture where associates feel supported in shaping their own career paths—within the company they already know and trust.
