Mentoring is a relationship formed where you are given support and encouraged by someone to aid you in your development, often a person who has the experience and the know how to help you achieve your potential. On this episode of the back of hosting the Friendtor Event, we discuss the importance and our understanding of mentors. What do mentors do for you? Mentors have the ability to help you evaluate and reach your potential, they are often on hand to support you and also give you an insight into a particular industry. What are the benefits of a mentor? The list of benefits of having a mentor is endless but include the following:- Forming a relationship which makes you feel supported, along with encouragement and advice. As part of the experience, you both gain confidence and leadership skills Mentees are often held accountable for their goals and that added pressure means they will overcome many challenges. A mentee is able to utilise their mentors’ network to their benefits. Why it’s important to have a mentor? The forming of a long-term relationship is beneficial to a mentee, not only do they grow and develop throughout the relationship period. The mentor shares invaluable teaching and insight to an individual, further to this the relationship formed could be utilised in the future which may lead to other opportunities – The power of your network What is a good mentor?
