Hello All!

I want to take you into the world of Mentoring and the impact it can have on other people, especially our younger generation of people. I also offer a mentoring exercises for any adult who wishes to take in the challenge of mentoring someone between the ages of 13-25 years of age. I believe these are the ages that are the most difficult ages for a person to navigate life. It is that cross between finally becoming a teenager (13), learning to understand and negotiate more difficult obstacles and pressures along the way and on to moving into what should be a mature young adult life ahead (25).  

So what is the definition of Mentoring? Well, the primary purpose of mentoring is to facilitate the personal and professional growth of a less experienced individual (the mentee) by leveraging the knowledge, experience, and guidance of a more experienced person (the mentor).

In addition, there are 7 key roles involved in a Mentoring plan which include, providing guidance, giving constructive feedback, acting as a role model, helping set goals, facilitating networking, offering emotional support and holding the mentee accountable. 

Whether you are a parent, teacher or supervisor on the job, you are a mentor, at least to a degree, because there is always someone in your life that looks up to you because of who you are as a person, how you perform daily and how you navigate life as a leader.
