It is the mentor’s responsibility to create a safe and trusting space that enables a mentee to stretch and step outside their comfort zone, take risks, and show up authentically.

We often meet someone and think they are “different” but people are not inherently different: our differences lie between us, not within us.

Becoming more self-aware is the necessary first step to bridging differences. Without it, you will not be able to identify or understand when you encounter differences that matter.

One of the most beneficial aspects of mentoring is its inherent reciprocity. When reciprocity is present, both mentor and mentee fully engage in the relationship.

Mentoring is a critical part of personal growth and development and affords a lifetime of opportunity to grow and develop.
