Mentoring That Works in these Testing Times – Sharing the Benefit of Your Experience WITH A MENTEE

These days, mentoring is defined – more often than not – in distinction to coaching.

Mentorship


Mentorship is a relationship in which a more experienced or more knowledgeable person helps to guide a less experienced or less knowledgeable person. The mentor may be older or younger than the person being mentored, but they must have a certain area of expertise. It is a learning and development partnership between someone with vast experience and someone who wants to learn. Interaction with an expert may also be necessary to gain proficiency with/in cultural tools. Mentorship experience and relationship structure affect the "amount of psychosocial support, career guidance, role modelling, and communication that occurs in the mentoring relationships in which the protégés and mentors engaged."


Mentoring is a learning relationship between two people. It requires a range of human qualities such as trust, commitment and emotional engagement. It includes a range of skills including listening, questioning, challenge and support. Mentoring has a time scale. In some contexts it is a lifelong relationship, in others it may be a few months.

Types of Mentoring

In the world of business and organisational management, the authors of the Mentoring Pocketbook identify four types of mentoring:

  1. Developmental mentoring
  2. Helps the mentor learn and develop in their role – often as a part of an organisational scheme. The commonest form in the UK.
  3. Sponsorship mentoring
  4. Helps the mentee move forward in their career. The commonest form in the US.
  5. Executive mentoring
  6. Helps executive mentees work on their performance and development as a leader. Often focuses on the political aspects of the role and long-term career thinking.
  7. Reverse mentoring
  8. Here, the mentor is younger and has less experience than the mentee. Their role is to pass on their experience and understanding of the culture they inhabit, for example in their technical role or simply as a younger person.

Why Work with a Mentor?

The mentoring relationship always has the capacity to be both challenging and rewarding for mentor and mentee. It often has a positive long-term career impact for the mentee, and is rewarding for the mentor.

For the mentee, it can:

ü Provide impartial advice, guidance, and encouragement

ü Help with solving problems and making decisions

ü Guide and develop political and social awareness and acumen

ü Improve self-awareness and self-confidence

ü Lead to learning and professional development

ü Facilitate review and reflection on experiences

What are the Roles of a Mentor

ü Manage the relationship

ü Encourage

ü Nurture

ü Teach

ü Offer mutual respect

ü Respond to the learner’s needs

I would also say that there is a big role for the mentor in demonstrating confidence in the mentee’s abilities and potential. I think that they have a part to play in reducing the interference element of Performance Equation.
