Mentoring occurs through a series of conversations in which one person (Mentor) draws on their experience and knowledge to advise and guide a less experienced person (Mentee) in order to enhance their performance or support their development. Mentoring involves creating a relationship which enables the other to discuss the important issues that matter to them and can be tailored to that individual.
