Mentor

A mentor is someone who helps you grow your skills, make better decisions, and gain new perspectives on your life and career. As a mentee, your mentor will leverage their experience to give you guidance on your career or life now and in the future.

The purpose of mentoring is to tap into the existing knowledge, skills, and experience of senior or high-performing employees and transfer these skills to newer or less experienced employees in order to advance their careers.

The purpose of mentoring is to connect an individual who has a lot of knowledge and experience with someone who hasn’t gained the same knowledge or experience.

By having someone who knows more than yourself share advice, offer guidance, and be a sounding board for your thoughts you stand to benefit from experience beyond your own. Whether in your career or life, having a mentor is crucial to all of our continued growth and development.
