What is Mentoring? “Mentoring is an alliance that creates a space for dialogue, that results in reflection, action and learning”
“Mentoring – developing insight to turn hindsight into foresight”
“Mentoring is a synergistic relationship – two or more people, engaged in a process that achieves more than each could alone”
“Mentoring is a partnership between a less experienced mentee and the more experienced
mentor, who uses their professional and life experience to help the mentee develop and advance their career.”

The Mentoring Philosophy
![Page 8: Mentoring for Career Development](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052116/5875d1811a28ab8f438b5537/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Mentoring Mindset Traditional Paradigm • The mentor picks a protégé • A mentor is someone more
senior • You should have a lot in
common with your mentor • Mentoring is for young
people • Mentors tell you what to do • Mentors give advice • You are a mentor or mentee
Contemporary Thinking • The mentee seeks mentors • A mentor is someone you can
learn from regardless of age or position
• Difference provides potential for greater discovery, challenge & growth
• Mentoring is for anyone at any stage of life or career
• A mentor is a sounding board • Mentors assist your decision-
making & problem-solving • You are both mentor and
mentee

Mentoring and Coaching both…..
• Provide one-to-one interaction to achieve personalised learning and growth
• Cater to individual needs, personal styles and time constraints
• Can be conducted face to face or from remote locations
• Complement formal training and educational experiences
• Process real-life issues, problems and decisions • Facilitate access to information and choices about
new behaviours and actions • Support the achievement of positive outcomes

What’s the difference between Coaching and Mentoring?
• Coaching is used when there is a well-defined goal that is based on improving skills and performance.
• Mentoring is appropriate for career planning, providing general guidance, setting and achieving goals, making decisions or facilitating problem solving.
