MENTORSHIP

Is mentoring for you?

• Do you like making a difference?
• Think about your career path…..Who helped you along the way?
• Do you want to challenge yourself and grow as a leader?
• What time commitment can I make?

Mentoring is more than the transfer of knowledge, advice, knowledge or insights. A mentor encourages people to take ownership in personal development while providing perspective to help avoid pitfalls and reinventing the wheel. Mentor’s experiences have shaped them through the struggles and can help navigate, show the big picture while being unbiased. The job of a great mentor is to challenge your beliefs and views but give you space to decide who you really want to be, instead of being the person that you think you should be. As a mentor you have ability to provide ideas, thoughts and insights that challenge and enablea mentee to see beyond their scope by amplifying their thinking capabilities.

Mentoring provides so many benefits for those willing to invest their time in developing another professional.

• Exposure to fresh perspectives, ideas and approaches
• Extension of their professional development record
• Opportunity to reflect on their own goals and practices
• Development of their personal leadership and coaching styles
• Engage and develop “Top Performers” BUT more importantly…..

Give back and make a difference…

Why do I need a Mentor?

• Am I looking to take my career to the next level?

Once you have this defined, you and your Mentor can fine tune and transform your vision.
