The Role of the Mentor
Both the mentor and the mentee are expected to take the initiative and learn and benefit from the mentoring experience. Mentors provide exceptional learning experiences for their mentees; they have the ability to lead, inspire and motivate their mentees by expanding their mentee’s awareness, insight & perspective.
The mentor needs to be comfortable with the student’s expectations and confident that s/he can meet the student, by realistically assessing his/her own time commitments and experience. In some cases, when a student has no clear goals, the mentor may need to identify the way that s/he feels s/he can best assist the student by offering some options.
