As our work environments increase in complexity, we all need more insight, understanding, and guidance outside of traditional channels—such as training programs or other formal learning experiences—to be successful in our roles. Mentoring is ideally suited to this task, and leaders and team members alike can benefit greatly from building mentoring relationships within the organization.
The mentoring role can be filled by individuals who have experience and knowledge that they are willing to share with others, regardless of their level of formal positional authority. By building a unique interpersonal relationship, mentors can guide and support the development and progression of their mentees in numerous areas while simultaneously supporting their ability to meet exceptional standards of performance, enhance their capabilities as people and professionals, and develop essential, transferable skills they can use in their current roles and beyond.
For mentoring relationships to be successful, the mentor and mentee must both commit to fostering a constructive relationship that eliminates barriers, promotes open dialogue, and facilitates growth. The Mentoring for Success workshop aims to give participants new insight into their roles and responsibilities within this dynamic relationship.
