After working in marketing in the corporate world, Hodgson and her husband started their own companies supplying the retail chains with homeware, kitchenware and beauty products. As CEO, Hodgson leads a team in Cape Town importing, warehousing and being an agent for retailers in South Africa. Hodgson joined YPO (Young Presidents Organization) as a member in 2009 and was involved in one of the first mentoring pilots in Cape Town, becoming Chapter Mentoring Officer and then Africa Regional Mentoring Officer, developing mentoring training materials and holding the first YPO mentoring training workshop. She was YPO Global Mentoring Chair on two international committees for 5 years (2012-2018), rolling out the YPO Mentoring program to 12 regions around the world, developing and launching Mentoring Masterclasses, an online mentoring platform YPO MentorCloud and training mentoring facilitators. She developed a mentoring model, the Catherine Wheel, in 2017 which was adopted by YPO as their mentoring model for their program and is used by other organizations globally. Hodgson is a certified Mentoring Facilitator and runs masterclasses globally on mentoring and conversational skills. She believes passionately in lifelong learning and has been on a personal learning journey in the mentoring and coaching fields. Hodgson studied Conversational Intelligence under the late Judith Glaser for 18 months and was certified in Conversational Intelligence in 2019. She has also certified as a Results Based Coach with the NeuroLeadership Institute in 2020. In 2020 she formally started a mentoring, coaching and consulting business, SHIFT Mentoring. In 2022 Hodgson was certified as a Forum Facilitator for Young Presidents' Organisation. After many years of developing mentoring material for organizations, Hodgson decided to put all her learning together into her book, The Mentoring Roadmap - the ultimate guide for mentors and mentees. The book was launched in November 2023. Married with two adult children, she lives in Cape Town, South Africa and spends five months of the year sailing in Europe.
""Catherine is not only a highly capable and committed leader, she is a pioneer in developing innovative mentoring concepts and resources. She has championed mentorship globally, with an unwavering belief in its power to transform lives. This book is set to become the essential go-to resource in mentoring for years to come."" Julia Raphaely, CEO of Paradigm Connect and Young Presidents' Organization member Catherine has created a world-class mentoring product which has positively impacted the lives of so many. Alan Hepburn, managing partner, Asia ABA, and YPO (Young Presidents' Organization) member Catherine is known affectionately within Young Presidents' Organization as ""the mother of mentoring"". A true inspiration and visionary, she created the Catherine Wheel Mentoring Model and all the other supporting mentoring tools. This is a crucial part of members' lifelong learning journey. Roy Moëd, co-founder of LifeBook Memoirs Limited and YPO (Young Presidents' Organization) member I was fortunate to experience one of the biggest innovations in Young Presidents' Organization: mentoring, created and led by Catherine Hodgson. More important, I got to work very closely with Catherine as part of the mentoring sub-committee to launch YPO Mentoring. Catherine is a pioneer, creating and promoting the mentoring concept in the African region before using technology to take it pan-YPO. Catherine is a born leader with an infectious smile and positive attitude. With a very high emotional quotient, she understands the power of mentoring. I have seen her design and develop material for mentoring based on her vast experience. She has trained numerous people across the world with the unique Mentoring Masterclass. This was successful because of her ability to connect and engage, which has helped her become an outstanding mentoring facilitator. Jayant Mammen Mathew, CEO of The Malayala Manorama Co Ltd and YPO (Young Presidents' Organization) member Catherine is insightful, extraordinarily emotionally intelligent, authentic and a gifted teacher. I have done almost 50 events for YPO, and Catherine and I have led workshops at the same events across the globe. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to watch many gifted speakers. That said, Catherine is my favourite. I prioritize attending her workshops not only because I learn so much from her, but simply because witnessing her teach makes my heart sing. Catherine is a true servant leader who lives her purpose every day. Each time I've interacted with her, I've come away with new knowledge and perspective that has been immediately relevant to my work and life. Her workshops are practical, thought provoking and emotional. It doesn't get much better than that.
