R.I.S.E. Mentor Connect
Mentorship can bridge that gap for DSPs , BTs, IICs, BAs and all staff. Getting advice from someone who has had similar experiences and understands the real-world challenges of the job can help a staff member improve their skills, connect and embrace our company's culture.
Our mentor connect program offers one-on-one relationships that will allow both mentors and mentees to share their insights, perspectives and experiences related to various topics within the workplace. This results in a supportive mutually-beneficial relationship that provides the mentor with an enhanced knowledge of the field, while driving career, personal development and employment opportunities for the mentee.
Mentorship allows mentors to take all of their years of work experience and share with the new generations entering the workforce.
What is Mentorship?
Mentoring is a process where a more experienced colleague (the mentor) provides advice and support to a less experienced person (the mentee) in following a career path. This relationship is built on trust, respect, and communication. Mentors do not need to be professionally qualified as their advice is based on personal experience, however there are qualifications that can be valuable in such a role.
Mentoring is often associated with a professional journey, presenting an opportunity to build connections and learn from experienced others in their chosen field of work.
Mentoring relationships also tend to be more successful when there is mutual learning between both the mentor and the mentee, rather than just the mentor providing the direction and advice.
Here are some of the key characteristics you might expect to see from mentoring:
- Mentors provide advice to mentees informed by their personal and professional experiences.
- The mentor and mentee(s) build a long-term relationship.
- Mentoring relies heavily on mutual trust and respect between the mentor and mentee.
- Clear and efficient communication is key to the success of a mentoring program.
- The effectiveness of mentoring relies on having a mentor who is consistent.
- Mentoring can sometimes be fluid and lack structure so employers should check QA procedures and policies are up-to-date and align to key activities.
