What is Mentoring?
Mentoring is a process where a seasoned professional supports someone with less experience in their field, helping them develop skills, gain knowledge and advance in their career or personal growth. It’s a collaborative relationship in which the mentor shares insights and experiences, while the mentee actively seeks feedback and learning opportunities. Successful mentoring is grounded in mutual respect, open communication and a shared commitment to the mentee's goals.
"Mentoring was a boost of energy that will help me continue developing my project. It was crucially important for me at the very beginning of my project to be included in the program. Now I have more connections, a clear perspective on what to do next."
