Make the Most of Mentoring: Best Practices and Core Principles for Mentors and Mentees

Last updated October 19, 2022

Learn how to set up and maintain a mentoring relationship that supports your needs as a mentor or as a mentee.

Overview

Mentoring relationships are key to helping you navigate and develop throughout your career. But maintaining those relationships, both as a mentor and as a mentee, can be a lot of work and can also present special challenges. Mentoring relationships suffer when mentors and mentees do not have a clear sense of expectations or goals (for instance, of when the relationship has run its course).

This course will help you understand the purpose of a mentoring relationship, as well as how mentoring differs from other key relationships like those with advisors and sponsors. Additionally, you will learn how to impactfully set up and manage a mentoring relationship, from both the mentor and mentee perspectives, and how to handle roadblocks that arise through those relationships. The course is accompanied by a mentoring journal to help you plan your mentoring philosophy, goals and expectations and set boundaries with your mentor or mentee partner. This course is appropriate for mentors and mentees at all levels.
