And building a high-quality knowledge transfer process is one of the main tasks of a mentor.There are different tools for this: some people prefer face-to-face meetings once a week, while others are more comfortable writing reports every 2 days. Everything is limited only to the tasks set and the resources of the mentor and student.But regardless of the scope and content of the transmitted information, there are key principles that will make mentoring most useful.Equality and trustIt is very important to build a relationship between the mentor and the ward on an equal footing. The mentor should not position himself as a first-class specialist with unshakable authority, and it is better not to devalue his knowledge and experience.Otherwise, "top-down" communication will inspire the ward with a sense of inferiority and completely discourage the desire to develop.IndependenceThe ideal scheme looks like this: the student tries to solve the problem himself, and only when he has reached a dead end, the mentor should come to his aid and suggest further steps.It sounds simple, but it is very difficult to implement: mentors are often tempted to help them unnecessarily in order to solve the problem faster. Mentors should fight with themselves in such situations: such behavior leads to the development of disorganization and laziness in the student.FeedbackIt should be there. Always. In conditions of uncertainty, people tend to think out the reality and look for confirmation of what they want: an insecure employee will decide that he is a klutz, and a student with high self-esteem, on the contrary, will start flying in the clouds.Each mentor-mentor pair selects the feedback form individually: a unique interaction and feedback does not imply the presence of a template. For some, it is easier to talk in person, but for others, a detailed written review is the best solution.Mentors also need feedback from their students, and its form should also be determined in advance.Working with progress and expectationsIt is necessary to take into account the progress in working with the ward, as it is difficult to draw conclusions at the end of training without it. Without recording, all conclusions will be based on memory, and each person's memory works in its own way. As a result, the result of thinking about progress may differ quite critically from the objective one.It is enough to regularly keep a table or notes in a notebook, then the costs of subjectivity will be minimized.Training expectations and evaluation criteria should be specified at the very beginning of the collaboration, otherwise menti will feel uncertain and uncomfortable, as in the case of poor feedback."In the next century, leaders will be those who empower others" - Bill GatesMentoring is a fun way to learn new things and become more professional. A person is driven to success by other people and their knowledge. As Steve Jobs said, "the world is being changed by people no smarter than you" ?Mentoring helps to create a culture of continuous learning and development, increase employee engagement and loyalty — all this plays an important role in the success of the company.</blockquote>
