There are huge benefits to mentoring, especially for the mentees as it helps develop individuals at all levels, increases motivation and confidence, develops strengths and overcomes weaknesses, discovers new ways of thinking and guides professional development and advancement.
The role of a mentor is also extremely rewarding as the time and energy invested into a mentee’s progression and wellbeing coincide with a mentor’s own personal and professional progression.
