Mentoring is a cooperative relationship between an experienced executive who acts as a role model, teacher, mentor and protector for the less experienced professional or employee. Mentors offer advice and guidance and share their knowledge, skills and experience to help mentees progress.
Mentoring can take many forms, depending on the needs and availability of the mentor and the mentee: face-to-face meetings, remote communication (via email, phone, Zoom), “shadowing” days when the mentee observes the mentor at work.
In this context and based on the availability of the executives, the mentoring process can begin.
