Mentoring Resources
A mentor is an experienced and trusted advisor willing to share knowledge with a mentee.
A mentoring relationship is not one-sided. Ideally, the mentoring relationship is collaborative, dynamic, and reciprocal. The relationship is the result of collaborations among the Mentee, Mentor, Supervisor and Program Manager.
A mentor is responsible for cultivating a relationship with a mentee where both parties establish goals, timelines and methods of achieving the goals. As a mentor, you will advocate, listen, advise, coach, challenge, connect and serve as a role model for your mentee. Explore these resources to learn the what, how, why and when for serving as a successful mentor.
