We all know that mentoring is an essential part of success and growth. Mentoring is a two way relationship in which someone with more experience or a broader perspective in a particular role or activity helps someone with less experience in that area to develop the understanding and awareness that will help them to be successful and adapt quickly to new situations.

On this episode of podcasts, I will be talking to Kate Gyasi and Andrew Young to explore the relationship between a mentor and a mentee, the benefits that comes with it, provide tips to be an effective mentor and how  to get the most out of mentoring.
