Reasons to Be a Mentor
Most people agree that mentees receive enormous benefits from mentors. Selling mentors, however, is becoming more challenging. Successful people are getting busier, and many aren't sure they want to make time to serve as mentors. If you're debating about doing this program, here are some of the most important reasons for investing at least two hours a month(12 hours for six months) to help a mentee. Also telephone calls, emails and faxes are tools to use in the mentoring process.
1. You'll learn. By serving as a mentor, you'll learn from your mentee. In the process, you'll also learn more about yourself.
2. This is a chance to pay back. If you may have received good mentoring from someone and never had a chance to show your gratitude to him or her directly.
3. You could receive recognition from peers and superiors. Being an effective people developer won't go unrecognized. In fact, we may have a year end awards program.
4. You may get some extra work done! Within ethical limits, your mentee could work on your research, help with a project, or finish other work that remains undone in turn for your help.
5. You'll review and validate what you know and what you've accomplished. Teaching another helps you review and reframe all you've learned about that subject.
6. You'll probably feel satisfied, proud, and other energizing emotions. When you have a positive effect on your mentee, expect several positive feelings of pride, satisfaction, happiness, contentment, and excitement along with the enjoyable physiological reactions that go with them.
7. Mentoring could have future personal payoffs. When mentee are successful, they often reward their mentors.
8. You'll leave the world and our community better than you found it.
Mentee should add their requirments in their profile..When you get a mentor, add that to profile to prevent others mentors from contacting you.
