WHAT MAKES A GOOD MENTOR
|
|
Someone absolutely credible whose integrity transcend
the message
|
|
Tells you things you may not want to hear but leaves
you feeling you have been heard
|
|
Interacts with you in a way that makes you want to
become better
|
|
Makes you feel secure enough to take risks
|
|
Gives you the confidence to rise above your inner
doubts and fears
|
|
Supports your attempt to set stretch goals for yourself
|
|
Presents opportunities and highlights challenges you
might not have seen on your own
|
|
BEGINNING THE MENTORING JOURNEY
|
|
Identify a mentor by finding something he or she has
done which you admire
|
|
In the relationship where the mentor knows what you
want to achieve and guides you to achieve it
|
|
Have many mentors for different aspects of your life
|
|
Mentoring does not need to be a long-term formal
relationship
|
|
Do not need to meet a mentor face-to-face to be
mentored
|
|
BENEFITS OF MENTORING
|
|
|
A mentor allows you to
see things from a different angle, an independent voice.
Make the most of
mentoring by seeking your mentor’s perspective on your direction in life
|
|
|
With the help of a mentor you will be able to set clear
goals, measure progress, monitor results, solicit feedback, use feedback to
improve further
Mentor will not develop a roadmap of success for you
but you will be able to understand quickly, be more productive and take the
path traversed by your mentor.
|
|
|
Job opportunity: a mentor can be invaluable to open
doors to a new path in life
Career opportunity: may be able to link you to the
right opportunities in the form of special projects, building a connection
with someone you may otherwise think is inaccessible or a promising promotion
one day.
