‣ What is a Mentor ?
Often considered a „ critical friend ‟, a mentor embraces the roles shown in the Figure 2 below , to help and support his / her mentees to explore options and make their own decisions . A mentor must not make decisions for their mentees , but rather , encourage them to arrive at their own decisions by asking lots of questions , giving examples , providing information and literature , and above all actively listening to the mentees .
