Profile

The Reverse Mentoring Practice (RMP) is a University of Nottingham Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences spin-out founded by Professor Stacy Johnson MBE.

Established in 2021, RMP designs reverse mentoring programmes that challenge traditional power dynamics and drive meaningful organisational change.

Its model connects senior leaders with junior staff and students – including disabled staff or those from minority ethnic backgrounds – to surface lived experience, strengthen inclusion and improve organisational culture across the NHS and universities.

RMP has partnered with over 90 organisations globally, including organisations as diverse as NHS Integrated Care Boards, Universities, the Wellcome Sanger Institute, UKRI, M & S, Avanti West Coast Rail and the OECD. Its evidence-based framework and EDI evaluation tools – developed through applied research – are helping embed more inclusive leadership practices, shape policy to enhance organisational productivity, digital transformation and staff engagement and retention.

Now transitioning to a scalable, data-driven platform, RMP has launched its Certified Reverse Mentoring Practitioner programme to enable organisations worldwide to deliver high-quality reverse mentoring independently with rigour and measurable impact.
