Mentoring
Developmental mentoring is a type of mentoring that focuses on the personal and professional growth of the mentee. The mentor provides guidance, support, and feedback to help the mentee develop their skills, knowledge, and capabilities. Developmental mentoring is different from traditional mentoring, which often focuses on career advancement and job skills.
Characteristics of developmental mentoring include:

- Goal setting: Developmental mentoring involves setting clear goals and objectives for the mentee. The mentor helps the mentee identify areas for improvement and develop strategies to achieve their goals.
- Feedback and reflection: Developmental mentoring involves ongoing feedback and reflection. The mentor provides constructive feedback to the mentee and helps them reflect on their progress and identify areas for further development.
- Individualized approach: Developmental mentoring is tailored to the individual needs and goals of the mentee. The mentor works with the mentee to develop a personalized plan for growth and development.
