- Can you be a mentor in any role? Yes, because the definition of a mentor is an experienced and trusted advisor.
- People may not see themselves as a mentor because they think they're inexperienced in their role, even if they hold higher leadership roles.
- Many people don't view themselves as mentors, but others may see them as mentors because of their great relationships and guidance.
- As an entry-level employee, one can still be a mentor by becoming familiar with the basics of the program, company, or department and advising newer employees.
- Prompt: What are you doing to be seen as a mentor amongst your peers? How can you leverage your previous work experience to become a mentor?
- Being a mentor is not only about guiding those behind you but also building relationships with peers and higher-ups.
