OhHello - a show about non BS career mentorship and expert advice
Jeremy Bloom
At OhHello, we unlock the full potential of your workforce through personalized, real-time mentorship. Powered by AI, we deliver 1:1 mentor matches that drive growth, engagement, and immediate results. The post-pandemic workplace is fractured. Employees feel isolated, disconnected, and disengaged—leading to productivity slumps and high turnover. Traditional mentorship programs are outdated, while businesses struggle to offer meaningful career support. Key challenges include: 1. Quiet Quitting is Spreading: Disengaged employees do just enough to get by, killing productivity and innovation. 2. Remote Teams Feel Lost: Lack of in-person interaction drains team cohesion and trust. 3. Mentorship is Broken: Outdated programs fail to provide the timely, personalized guidance modern employees crave. 4. No Access to Expertise: Employees struggle to find guidance or career support when they need it most. 5. Vulnerability is Lacking: A culture of "fend for yourself" leaves employees feeling unsupported and alone. OhHello offers an urgent remedy to today’s workplace challenges. Our platform provides: * Instant Human Connection: Employees get real-time access to mentors who can guide them through challenges via 1:1 video sessions. * Top-Tier, Empathetic Mentors: Selected from the best global companies, our mentors deliver guidance with empathy and real-world expertise. * AI-Powered, Personalized Matching: Our AI ensures employees connect with the right mentor at the right time, accelerating problem-solving and development. * On-Demand Mentorship: Employees can book sessions on-demand, ensuring they get help exactly when they need it by hand-selecting multiple mentors to learn from. * Scalable, Annual Membership: As your company grows, OhHello.io scales with you, providing structured monthly sessions to keep your teams engaged and on track. Mentorship with a Purpose: Our unique model incentivizes mentors by connecting their time to 50+ charities. Mentors give back while delivering value to your team, creating a win-win.
