Becoming a mentor gives you a way to share your wisdom and knowledge in a mutually beneficial relationship. Learn the benefits of being a mentor and how to be successful in this relationship.

Becoming a mentor gives you a way to share your wisdom and knowledge with someone less experienced. People who mentor also benefit; studies have shown they often earn more money and promotions than nonmentors. But there are some important guidelines to consider before you start this mutually beneficial relationship. In the course, professor Ellen Ensher, author of Power Mentoring, explains how to get to know your protǧ,̌ shares the dos and don'ts for appropriate self-disclosure, and helps you develop a structure and agenda for each mentoring meeting. She also offers guidance on building trust and chemistry, providing feedback, and helping your protǧ ̌make critical career and work decisions and become resilient in the face of challenges. She also helps you address common obstacles, including a protǧ ̌that fails to meet expectations or violates trust, and explains how to gracefully exit the relationship.
