MENTORING FOR BUSINESS SUCCESS
Mentoring is a developmental process in which mentors – more skilled or experienced colleagues – act as role models to mentees, to encourage their professional and personal development and to help to them reach their full potential.
Mentoring encompasses many skills such as listening, guiding, facilitating and providing feedback and encouragement.
