Perspectives on Mentoring

Mentoring is an important aspect of professional development and talent management efforts in a wide variety of fields such as health sciences, education, business, engineering, and social work. Mentoring entails forming a mutually supportive and learning relationship between the more experienced (mentor) and less experienced (protégé) colleagues for the purposes of personal support and professional learning. There is an increased interest in the topic of mentoring in the workplace on a global scale. Research indicates that those who receive mentoring rise faster in their organizations and have more success in their careers than those who do not have this experience. This series will focus on various aspects of the mentoring process in a variety of organizational settings and contexts.
