MENTOR APPLICATION

    ​Mentoring is a cost effective valuable tool for developing our most important asset, our people. A successful mentoring process depends on the partners sharing common goals and expectations, having a commitment to the mentoring practice, and giving and receiving trust and respect. Both the mentor and the mentee give and grow in the mentoring process. You, the mentor, have the opportunity to review your accomplishments and challenges, as a reminder of lessons learned. In sharing your expertise you are leaving a legacy and guiding another’s career path. This also gives you an opportunity to review and reenergize your personal career goals.

    You, the Mentor will get many benefits from this experience. Here are just a few additional benefits you might consider:
    • Personal satisfaction in helping someone grow professionally
    • Learning from the Mentee
    • Building new Relationships
    • Developing your skill as a “teacher”—helping someone clarify their career goals
    • Developing your skill as a “guide” – helping someone navigate the waters of the organization
    • Developing your skill as an “advisor” – helping someone find their strengths and weaknesses
    • Receiving recognition
    • Future pay-offs
    As you reflect on being a mentor, think about who you would like as a mentee and what you would like to impart to them. This is, after all, going to be a partnership.
