MENTORSHIP GUIDE

 

INTRODUCTION

Mentoring is an integral component of the Management Trainee Program and participants in the Program are encouraged to benefit from the advice of experienced managers acting as mentors. It is a supportive learning relationship between an individual -- the mentor -- who shares his or her knowledge, experience and insights with another less-experienced person -- the "learning associate" -- who is willing and ready to benefit from this exchange.

The nature of the relationship varies with the personal styles of the partners. Ideally, mentoring should be a simple and uncomplicated process based on mutual respect, trust and interest. Mentoring relationships should be founded on realistic expectations on both sides and be adaptable to changes in circumstances.

Successful mentoring relationships depend on compatible, but not necessarily identical, personal styles. The participants must be comfortable with each other, too.
