What is Mentoring?

Everyone could use a personal mentor. A mentor helps gain new insights, and achieve business and/or personal happiness and success. A mentor is an experienced person who guides another, less experienced, person in a specific field. A mentor shares valuable life lessons for you to learn from and be inspired by. A mentoring programme could potentially go on for years.

Difference Mentoring/coaching

A mentor mainly guides his mentee with business and/or career related questions. It’s about sharing experiences and getting to know the company. The expertise the mentor has can serve as an example for the mentee. A coach focuses more on the personal development and awareness of the coachee. Coaching is often based on knowledge from the field of psychology. Coaching is often performed by a coach from outside the company to provide a more neutral view. Mentoring is often performed by someone that has extensive knowledge of the company or field in question, which makes it possible to set up a long term mentoring programme.

How can a Mentor help you?

Mentoring can help guide and support a person in their career development. The mentor shares their knowledge, expertise, and experiences, but the main task is guiding the mentee in their own process of growth and to be open to learn and grow themselves. Mentor and mentee share the responsibility for the learning process.
