Who is a Mentor?

 

While there are many different ways of answering the question of who is a mentor, a basic definition with which we can begin is that a mentor is a special kind of helper who works with others in a positive, constructive way so that both mentor and protégé have the potential to grow through the relationship.

 

CMF Leadership Consulting approaches mentoring as the means of offering development and experiencial opportunities throughout their careers in your organizations.  Whether your organization takes a 'developmental' approach, which in everyday language means that you're working to create knowledge skills and abilities that support the employees as they grow, learn, and mature through their living and learning experience in your organization.

 

Therefore, a mentor within the CMF Leadership Consulting training is an individual who creates a professional working relationship with a protégé aimed towards personalizing and improving the quality of life, learning, and working experience.
