Tip of the Week – Mentoring – Jan 30/23

Mentoring:  This seems to be a dying art.  It used to be something people were proud to be. 

I have found in my experience that people would rather hoard the information they know than share it for numerous reasons; fear of being let go or fired, sense of job security, not enough time, too busy, not interested, not enough patience etc.

There are many different ways to look at or view mentoring.

I have included various links on mentoring, key qualities of a mentor, free books, best mentoring movies.
