Mentees

Find a guide and an advocate for your career

Mentees can benefit personally and professionally through the knowledge and experience of another communicator.

While the knowledge, advice, or resources a mentor shares depends on the goals of your mentoring relationship, typically mentees find with their mentor they can:

  • Ask tough questions about work in a safe environment
  • Learn about alternative career paths
  • Explore how to navigate workplace challenges
  • Solicit feedback and find blind spots
  • Set goals
  • Develop new contacts
  • Identify other career and personal resources
  • And more…

Mentees are not the only learners. The mentor/mentee relationship also allows you an opportunity to bring your other knowledge and special skills to your mentor.
