How best are we mentored?

Every manager should aquire the skills required mentoring. The mentor should genuinely show interest in the upliftment of their reportees. Mentoring has dual purpose. Firstly for a Manager, it will help in understanding the issues faced by the reportees and help them perform better. Secondly, it will help them to take better decisions as they already created a comfort zone by interracting with the team and understanding the difficultines of the team.Hence decision making is no more head breaking task.

This is the preparation step towards mentoring. Managers should take him to understand an employees feelings before start getting in to serious mentoring. The mentoring should happen not just to get the running project finished. It should be for the over all well being of the employee. Primarily after a mentoring session, the employee should get the confidence to take new challenges.
